ABE—The Autonomous Benthic Explorer - Woods Hole Oceanographic . . . The Autonomous Benthic Explorer, nicknamed ABE, came in at No 32 That was one below GM Unimate, a robotic arm that revolutionized the assembly line in 1961, and two below the Tin Woodman from The Wizard of Oz
R. I. P. A. B. E - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The Autonomous Benthic Explorer, nicknamed ABE, was lost at sea on March 5, 2010, on its 222nd research dive ABE helped to herald a new kind of deep-submergence vehicle—the autonomous underwater vehicle, or AUV, a free-swimming robot that was unmanned and untethered to surface ships (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
Ocean Zones - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The ocean water column is made up of five zones: the sunlight (epipelagic), twilight (mesopelagic), midnight (bathypelagic), abyssal (abyssopelagic) and hadal zones (trenches)
