FESTO Air Jelly

This is cool. Mechanical jellies in air...

... and water...

Very cool. They also make a ray, but not nearly as slick.

Seriously Cool. You think they can figure out how to get a camera inside? B) Subal's new stealth remote control housing 2015.

Wow

These are super cool. B)

Check out the AquayRay as well. It is not until the end of the clip that you get some perspective as to this things real size. You could take this diving with you! How to brighten up your deco stops - bring along an AquaRay and a couple of underwater mechanical jellies. I want one (maybe I should post in the Gear Lust section!)

How does that air jelly work? It seems to be an empty transparent ball with some gears - where is the lift/propulsion coming from? How does it know to put it's tentacles down for landing? Why am I bothering to even ask all this? It is obvious...It's run by magic!

Does it sting?

Does it sting?

Being isolated from the ocean for millions of years, they have lost the ability to sting, except for your pocketbook.

I imagine that ball is carefully filled with Helium...the whole assembly seems only slightly negative as it's descending. Then even a little lift from the flapping arms is enough to propel it into the air.

Balloons?...New fangled inventions....It's magic I tell you
