Image Of the Day caption:
At the start of an expedition to Guadalupe Island, Mexico, the two REMUS SharkCam vehicles are still relatively unscathed. The specially modified REMUS 100 (front) and 600 vehicles are equipped with cameras (and on the 600, lights), as well as a unique tracking algorithm that allows them to follow and predict the movement of a tagged shark. SharkCam 100 made its debut in 2013 on the Discovery Shark Week program "Return of Jaws," followed by "Jaws Strikes Back" in 2014. Tonight, its larger, deeper-diving cousin plays a lead role in "Jaws of the Deep." Tune in to find out what happensand what the vehicles reveal about the behavior and environment of the ocean's largest predator.
