[1][2][3][4] After a demonstration to industry professionals, in the Spring of 1984, it made a significant entry to the remotely operated vehicle market.[5] It is a self-propelled, tethered, free swimming vehicle that was designed and built by Chris Nicholson of Deep Sea Systems International, Inc. (DSSI).[5] In the 1989 James Cameron film, The Abyss, the Mini Rover MKII ROV is credited as "Little Geek".[9] The size and portability of the Mini Rover ROV made it easily deployable for emergency situations anywhere in the world.On November 2, 1999, a Mini Rover ROV was on board the USNS Mohawk (T-ATF-170) at the scene of the October 31, 1999, EgyptAir Flight 990 crash site to be used to identify target locations.
