‘We were pleased to share the exciting Great Shipwrecks exhibit in 2014, so much so that we invited New York Sea Grant to bring a new New York waters exhibit to the 2015 Fair,’ said Great New York State Fair Acting Director Troy Waffner.
The exhibit features high tech components on land and in the reflecting pool at the Mini NY State Park at the Fair:
. New York Sea Grant 2015 Discover Clean and Safe Boating educational vessel equipped with a propane engine; presented in partnership with US Coast Guard Auxiliary and US Power Squadron
. Sea Perch ROVs used for science, technology, engineering and mathematics education
. Great Lakes Research Consortium and SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry with daily, in-water demonstrations of ROVs, remotely operated vehicles, transmitting to datascreen in exhibit tent
. Weather sensing buoy in State Fair pool already transmitting to website managed by Great Lakes Research Consortium and SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry at www.esf.edu/shipwreck with real-time data also to be seen on 36-inch monitor in exhibit tent
. information on the scientific aquatic research drone being utilized by Buffalo State University for Great Lakes region research
