Скачать или смотреть European International Submarine Races 2018

Teams from universities across the world race their human-powered submarines against the clock around a demanding slalom course in a unique sporting and engineering challenge. The IMarEST holds this race biennially and this is the fourth eISR to take place, held from 3 - 13 July 2018 at QinetiQ's Ocean Basin in Gosport, UK.

The basic rules of the sport are straightforward – teams must design, build and race flooded submarines piloted by a single scuba diver, who must be fully enclosed within the hull of the machine. All propulsion power must be provided by the diver during the race (i.e. no energy storage devices such as flywheels or batteries are allowed), but otherwise the design rules are open to whatever innovation teams decide to use.
