An underwater glider is a type of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) that employs variable-buoyancy propulsion instead of traditional propellers or thrusters. It employs variable buoyancy in a similar way to a profiling float , but unlike a float, which can move only up and down, an underwater glider is fitted with hydrofoils (underwater wings ...
