These photos were taken with the bots in a small plastic pool. It is a meter wide and only about 8 inches deep. The crap in the bottom is a very prolific crop of algae. Here, Proteus1 has fired and is diving straight for Timpani who is sitting on the bottom charging.

Here, Timpani has fired. It shot to the surface quickly in this shallow pool and bobbed around in lazy circles for some time before sinking slowly back to the bottom. Soon, I'll test these guys in a real pool and post new pics.

In this photo Timpani has fired and almost shot up directly under Proteus1. It's circular motion caused Proteus1 to drift to the other side of the pool before it could dive.

This is my Aquabot test aquarium. The three bots shown (yep, there are three, Double D is floating on the surface) were in the tank for over a month without failure. A power filter was used to keep the water clear. I hope to replace it with a bot, or bots, that will perform that function instead. Tap water was used here, but lead to a couple of problems. I would suggest distilled water with a small salt content.
