00:00Beneath the waves, sunken ships and downed aircraft serve as hidden time capsules of our past.
00:11To document these sites, the submerged team captures thousands of precise underwater photos
00:19using two cameras and specialised LED lighting.
00:26Advanced software aligns these images to construct detailed 3D digital twins of historic wrecks
00:34from World War II bombers to 19th century steamers.
00:44These virtual models preserve fragile underwater history forever
00:50and allow scientists to track site degradation over time.
01:06Through photogrammetry and virtual reality,
01:10anyone can now explore the deep sea without ever putting on a scuba tank.
