It is estimated to swim at speeds up to 7.2 km/h (4.4 mph) with a diving depth of 100 meters (328 feet). For comparison, the green sea turtle usually swims at 2.5 – 3 km/h (1.6 – 1.9 mph) in shallow waters. Sadly, all seven species of sea turtles are considered either "endangered" or "critically endangered."</p> <p>Currently the naro - tartaruga still lacks a proper shell, which will protect its internal electronics and streamline its shape, possibly reducing drag. In the future, the robot will serve as a vessel for studying autonomous underwater navigation, with interchangeable heads mounted with various sensors. Thanks to its fin-based locomotion, which is less noisy than using propellers, and its natural appearance, a robot like this one would be ideal for studying underwater ecosystems like coral reefs, which are also under serious threat.</p> <p>The same team is responsible for a tuna fish-like robot simply called the naro (short for nautical robot), which propels itself primarily with its tail fin. Another, more recent example of fin-based propulsion is the Shoal Consortium's <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927/http://www.gizmag.com/shoal-robot-fish-water-pollution/24370/" target="_blank">robo-fish</a>, which they hope will lead to autonomous underwater sensor networks.</p> <p>You can see naro - tartaruga take to the pool in the video below.</p> <p>Source: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927/http://www.naro.ethz.ch/p2/tartaruga.html" target="_blank">ETH Zurich Autonomous Systems Lab</a></p>  <div class="article_video"><iframe width="530" height="298" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927if_/http://www.youtube.com/embed/pqy_NSHcGLs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div>   <script type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927js_/http://static.fmpub.net/zone/7980"></script> <div id="bottom_unit"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927js_/http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"></script> </div> </div> <span class="title share_bar">Share</span> <div id="article_share_bar" class="dotsontop share_bar"> <div class="as_button fb_as_button"><div class="fb-like" data-href="http://www.gizmag.com/robotic-sea-turtle-first-swim/25166/" data-send="false" data-layout="box_count" data-show-faces="false"></div><script type="text/javascript">_ga.trackFacebook();</script></div> <div class="as_button"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927/http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="vertical" data-via="gizmag">Tweet</a></div> <div class="as_button"><div class="g-plusone" data-size="tall" data-href="http://www.gizmag.com/robotic-sea-turtle-first-swim/25166/"></div></div> <div class="as_button"><iframe style="overflow: hidden; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; " src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927if_/http://badge.stumbleupon.com/badge/embed/5/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gizmag.com%2Frobotic-sea-turtle-first-swim%2F25166%2F" width="50" height="60" id="iframe-stmblpn-widget-2"></iframe></div> <div class="as_button"><div class="pin-it-button" data-url="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927oe_/http://www.gizmag.com/robotic-sea-turtle-first-swim/25166/" data-image="http://images.gizmag.com/hero/naro-tartaruga-8.png" data-description="A robot sea turtle built to explore fin-based propulsion takes its first dip in the pool."></div></div> <div class="as_button"><script type="IN/Share" data-counter="top"></script></div> <div class="as_button" id="reddit_button_bar"><script type="text/javascript">reddit_newwindow='1'</script></div> <div class="as_button" id="email_a_friend_bar"><span class="email_a_friend">Email</span></div> </div>  <span class="title clear_left" id="author_byline_title">About the Author</span> <div class="dotsontop" id="authorcontainer">  <a href="/web/20130815103927/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jason-falconer/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130815103927im_/http://images.gizmag.com/author_profiles/180.jpg" alt="Jason Falconer" id="bio_pic"/> </a>   Jason is a freelance writer based in central Canada with a background in computer graphics.
