i am very curious about the bermuda triangle. is it possible to invent a robot to investigate what is in it and make it into a documentary show? just like robots used to explore the moon. something which can be controlled without wire and a camera attach to it and, also, it must be capable of finding its way out from there.
is it achievable?

did they manage to find those ships that disappear and aircraft that disappear?

Methane gas can create large bubbles that can bring down ships and low flying planes. Rogue waves up to 100 feet have also been documented in that area which can sink ships. Also, and you can do some research on this, the earth's magnetic field is changing greatly in many places all over the world, and this can interfere with instruments. We have found some ships and planes, but not all. I don't think we have the technology yet to send robots by themselves under the ocean. If we did, we wouldn't still be using those little unmanned research subs that are connected to ships. Perhaps we can do it, but it's too expensive for now.

If a human piloting a craft disappeared, a robot would disappear. However, if you're going to experiment, it's best to use a robot so you're not risking human life.
Have you tried looking at the Bermuda Triangle with Google Earth?
Now I'm all interested in the technical aspects of making an informative bot, under the assumption that anything that enters the Bermuda Triangle goes haywire and disappears.
You can tether it to something. The tether can furthermore be optical wire or something so a signal is constantly bounced back off the robot so you know A. how far away it is and B. it's there and C. if the signal suddenly starts bounding back right at the border of the triangle. The tether could attach either to a station on land (awfully long tether!!!) or to a robot-controlled ship that's a good distance away from the triangle, because you don't want a manned ship to get dragged in.
You can watch the robot with satellites and radar.
And um yeah, you could go the camera route. You can have it remote-controlled, but if there's an issue with signal interference, it'll have to move on its own. Hmm, it can't be trusted to navigate by magnetic poles... or to follow a signal outside the triangle... Maybe the best thing to do is choose a calm day, and design it so all it can do is move forward in a straight line??? (this wouldn't be a robot so much as a motor surrounded by the proper shape of wood that has a camera mounted on it.)
I really have no idea about the nature of the triangle, though. I would think that if everything got screwed up in that area all the time, there would be huge government programs going on to figure it out. I bet that in reality, craft pass through it all the time. There's only a few stories of mysterious disappearences.

No need for a robot. The area has been investigated and yes, ships have been found and the P-51 Mustangs that went down. Boats still pass through the triangle and planes fly over. I don't recall the exact explanation, but it's no big mystery. It's often shown on the discovery channel. I'd also suggest looking it up on wikipedia.com. Good info there.

There was answer on the Methane gas pockets seen the same Documentary. They also said it would be a HUGE source for power but very dangerous and expensive to try and extract it.
On robot idea, it isn't a bad idea. I would think they would need to use the same technology as the people trying to race the robotic vehicles across the desert with no assistance.

If you did get it to work, you would have to make sure that where ever it went stayed in view of a sat.com. orbiter- (for signal return,navigation and command control.)
The only thing that you would have trouble with would be getting it back if an anomaly occurs.Or losing your device all together.
A fixed programed device will only work if it stays within the search parameters.Which it wont if it goes "elsewhere".
which you want right?
N.A.S.A. has problems like this. they will be able to help a little more. Although i don't think that they have clearance to release new info.but you could see.

they have figured out what is up with bremuda triangle. it is a huge methane gas leak under the ocean. they did studies on what it would do to ships (sink) and what it would do to plans (drop them) so no need for a new robot we have it figured out

The cameras would not work. you are dealing with the same principle as the philidelphia experiment, Altered time and space. The magnetic resonance would wipe the tape, recording medium blank.

not likely. the magnetic pull messes the electronics all up. yes ships and planes have turned up. haven't herd of any people though. strange..... but i plan to go in person around the age of 49. planned when i was 15. if i make it back i will share any and all info i collect.

yes it is possible to make this type of robot but you would loose it in a gas explosion that happens when a crack opens and the frozen methane melts in an explosion making giant sink holes that can swallow aircraft, boats, subs, even swimmers including aquatic animals. but some people think its the aliens?????

The whole Bermuda triangle thing is a legend with no truth associated with it.
