Yep, probably the remote is like a small skid steer dozer setup. Maybe there is some depth info? Otherwise, would just need some spatial sense and familiarity with the sort of machine (and practice getting used to the perspective). These days, think of all the optical and othet sensors you could have. You could possibly see more than in a regular machine. Might be much more effective in case of needing more detailed work (not that a dozer is always the best for fine work, but everything has parameters they can operate within and knowing them can lead to much more precise work.
I'm guessing you start out with a good idea of what's down there and where. I'm sure it takes a lot of practice, but in this case, you can probably assume the bottom is pretty level. If not, as you "drive" around, you watch the snorkel and depth marks, and remember how deep it is there, and whether there's any slope, etc. Say sediment has turned a 15ft bottom to 10ft. You proceed to scoop it up and move it, until the depth marks show 15ft across the working area. Not easy, but not impossible.
A bit frustrating trying to watch this video dude Zooms in on the equipment but never the tower I spent the whole video trying to see if I could catch a glimpse of the tower up close to the cameraman I don't know maybe try to think about what other people want to see instead of just focusing on what you want to see
I know it is a 1 in 500 chance but what happens if it gets stuck or something fails on it. No machine is absolutely perfect all the time. I know it is an odd comparison but just look at the Apollo mission that blew up - all that money spent and they could not get the capsule back (RIP).
If I had a piece of equipment like that and it got stuck I would reach out to Dave Sparks on UA-cam they do heavy equipment recovery and something like that would probably make great content for a UA-cam video and maybe a free recovery for me and millions of views for them
You do not have to see, you just need to see were the dozer is at. After all it is working underwater and the water is muddy, so no one will see what it was doing.
well no customer could argue getting a big bill for a shitty job!!!
i imagine you would get a pretty good feel for what the dozer is doing, just like with any other piece of equipment.

How does this thing not get stuck within first 5 secs
I don’t know much about this but wouldn’t a drag line be cheaper to run.
Yea but underwater bulldozer
This has zombie killer potential written all over it.
😂😂 dubble tap
this style of dozer sure one upped the excavators that play submarine.
This is what it would be like if Bethesda started manufacturing Heavy Equipment.
What if you get stuck? I know dozers need traction for pushing dirt isnt tht big hunk of steel loosing a little weight being underwater?
You got no idea. None at all
I can't see how anyone can do any good with such a machine and not being able to see what he is doing.
it's radio commanded.
the guy is on the side and see it moving.
there are basic moves and it's not fine work,just scrapping work.

Is the driver inside or at the top of the shaft?
On the beach😀

I guess these folks never heard about draglines, Going back and forth with a bucket full of rock results in what?
something tells me if they're gonna spend a couple million bucks on an underwater dozer they've got a pretty good reason to be using it

No one died in that...lol They got back to earth just fine
Jon S The only fatal accident of an Apollo capsule, was while ground testing it
If it was me I would call Sparks heavy equipment recovery and if you're lucky you can get a recovery for free if they agree to a UA-cam vidio.

duhhh can u see through muddy water with a "remote control " ? can u understand my question ?
All going why not do this use that where fun in that. Some guy get play with jumbo radio control dozer
I wonder what it does for cooling, cant be much air flow in there!
***** I was just being a smart ass!
wander?
I thought the same thing, rad fan belt not spinning but it’s probably hydraulic and pulls air from the surface idk it a odd duck
i don't know but don't it look like some sort of a GPS antenna on the bucked maybe they use that to "see" what the are doing :-)
It don't look too efficient
How would you know what your doing ?
the driver sits on the shore with a remote control.Bulldozer devour everything.
It’s a robotic Nessie!
and cooling system ?
the water
LOL at all the guys with their 1:25th RC cars....THIS is real remote control!
You do not have to see, you just need to see were the dozer is at. After all it is working underwater and the water is muddy, so no one will see what it was doing.
I wonder how they even know what they're doing with the blade
Bulldozer is operated throught remote control
Have you ever heard of KILLDOZER
so basically a land attached dredge then not?
The remote control has automatic pilot
These guys have never heard of Remu Big Float
what the hell is dis thing? submarine???
This is underwater Bulldozer
If you tip it over your screwed
The 🐊 crocodiles would stay off this
WOW...
Is this a joke?
*you're*
