Abstract

Jebelli A, Yagoub C and Dhillon S

In this paper, we presented a light, reliable underwater robot made of Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene (PTFE) which has a high safety coefficient against the forces being applied on it in different circumstances of the sea depths in addition to being light, cheap and also we presented a very quick and low-cost method for sealing off this robot made of Teflon.
