Many of the images are blurry apparently due to an intermittant problem with the autofocus mechanism on the camera. Nevertheless, the system has been successful as a proof-of-concept in showing that data can be transmitted in near real-time from the deep ocean to the shore. This will be a key component to future seafloor observatories.
