Titan submarine loses control due to gaming controller mishap
Titan submarines were controlled by the wireless PC gaming controller.
Newfoundland: In an unexpected turn of events, the highly publicized journey of the Titan Submarine took a hit when its control system encountered an unusual setback.
Instead of relying on traditional control mechanisms, the experimental expedition decided to utilize a gaming controller, which ultimately led to a major blunder.
Reports reveal that instead of using a conventional control system, the experimental crew opted for a Logitech F710 wireless PC gaming controller, priced at a mere $29.99, to navigate the Titan Abode since 2010.
Media sources further elaborate that the homegrown abode had bolted panels in place of doors, lacking any safety cables or tracking systems.
Merely a minute and 15 seconds after being submerged in water, the connection was abruptly severed.
While the use of gaming controllers for drones, ROVs, and even some aircraft operations is not entirely unheard of, users have expressed criticism regarding the controller's role in steering the Submarine.
