Boxfish Research renames to Boxfish Robotics
As Boxfish product portfolio advanced, with a diverse range of robotics systems, both tethered and untethered, we recognized the need for a name that better represents our current scope and…

In an article in “Antarctic”, titled “Charismatic megafauna of Antarctica – the toothfish hunters of the Ross Sea”, Dr Regina Eisert emphasises the need to study Antarctic marine mammals in their natural environment. She discusses how new technology solutions, such as the Boxfish ROV for Marine Science, enable this type of scientific research.
Dr Regina Eisert is a research scientist who studies marine mammals, nutritional ecology, and mammalian physiology. She leads a research programme on top Antarctic predators and collaborates with academics and the government to promote understanding and protect the Ross Sea ecosystem of the Southern Ocean.
For seals, whales, and penguins, this means developing technological solutions for studying them in their true home, the Southern Ocean. Two promising solutions are the development of high-performance remotely operated vehicles (ROV), such as the Boxfish ROV we used on our 2018-19 expedition to McMurdo Sound.

The value of flagship species such as whales, seals, and penguins is immense, not just for scientific research but also for raising awareness for marine conservation and for promoting the responsible stewardship of one of the last wild places on Earth.
