The S.A.G.A.N
(the Silly Automatic Going Aqua Naught)
THE SAGAN is named after the great Carl Sagan; one of the twentieth centuries greatest skeptics, humanists, astronomers, teachers, writers and thinkers. It is a multipurpose propulsion platform for our Director of Photography, 4 HD Video Camera's / Lighting Rig's and Central Processing Unit for the Animatronics/ Puppets. Our characters/ puppets, mounted to the front of the craft can "fly" through the oceans with dolphins, seals, turtles and sharks and interact to them in real time.
THE SAGAN is powered by three military spec APOLLO SVX ELITE propulsion units which are connected to a central CPU controlling independent 360 degree thrust vectoring of each unit. This means that the craft will be able to hover, rotate on its axis, plane forward on the horizontal axis and elevate itself above the surface of the water so that the captain (Kakophony) and part of the vehicle can be elevated above the surface!
THE SAGAN will also have a lead roll in our online gaming and iphone application. It will go on adventures with the U.H.2.O's as they try to save to oceans. Consumer versions of the Sagan will be available for sale through this web site in December 2012 (Taking orders 2011).
