Telepresence technology is a term used by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to refer to the combination of satellite technology with the Internet to broadcast information, including video in real-time from cameras used on its remotely operated vehicle on Okeanos Explorer. Its ROV will be operating working in a deep sea environment. Data from the ROV is transmitted to a hub based on the land, which then send it to scientists and to the public.
This effort of the Okeanos Explorer has been compared to the lunar landing.
