Alvin made 12 dives to the RMS of the Titanic. Alvin is built to withstand the crushing pressure of the deep ocean. Alvin is built with lights, arms, and it is built for deep ocean research.
This is what the Clelia submersible looks like in this picture on the left. The maximum depth of the Clelia can operating a depth of 1,000 feet. It is used for picking up things with the arms it has on it. Clelia can lift up to 150 lbs. Also has two 500 watt metal halide lights, idea for taking pictures.
This is what the Hercules ROV looks like in this picture on the left. The depth of the Hercules is 4,000 meters (2.5 miles). It is used for study and recover artifacts to ancient shipwrecks. Hercules carries an array of cameras and acoustic sensors that are used to gather video and other data during each dive. A High-Definition (HD) video camera allows scientists to closely examine the dive site and monitor operations using very high resolution video.
This is what the Jason ROV looks like in this picture on the left. The maximum depth that the Jason ROV can make is 6,500 meters (21,385 feet). The Jason ROV is designed for detailed survey and sampling tasks that require a high degree of maneuverability. It has special things to allow it to carry water samples.
The way that real submersibles work is that they have people operating them.
