The subjects of this work are matters concerning the batyscaphe designed and constructed by the Scientific Circle of Young Constructors (SCoYC) acting at the Faculty of Technical Sciences of the Olsztyn University of Warmia and Mazury.The goal od the remote-controlled batyscaphe is an underwater exploration of water resorvoirs in Poland. Design and construction of the unmanned watercraft, also known as a batyscaphe, required the staff to resolve many engineering problems. One of them was the batyscaphe's steering system. The system is required to provide the ability to steer left and right, which was accomplished by two electric motors and a pneumatic system responsible for submersion and emersion. During the work on the submersion and emersion system the following problems were encounted:Largederwater pressure, the need to seal up parts of the set, water density changes in the function of water temperature and the salinity degree. Those subjects were futher impeded by the fact that the presumption submersion depth is up to 50 meters. The design was made with intention of the underwater fauna and flora exploration, thus it is necessary to obtain the maximum stability of the batyscaph in the set depth.
