Analysis: The controller for the OceanGate Expeditions sub exploring the Titanic wreckage, identified as a Logitech G-F710, is a relatively old one and relies on a Bluetooth connection.
What is notable, however, is the specific kind of controller the Titanic vessel used. It’s been identified as a Logitech G-F710 controller, released in 2011. Logitech is known for high-quality video game paraphernalia. The most worrying detail of the controller is that it operates wirelessly through Bluetooth. All of the military applications described above have controllers wired in, so there’s no risk of disconnection and any issues regarding radio transmission.
The reason for the vessel going missing is still unclear, and a host of factors could’ve contributed to this incident, so it would be presumptive to place any blame on any specific part. In given by OceanGate chief executive Stockton Rush, the controller appears to have modified joysticks. But it also appears to still operate wirelessly, as Rush throws the controller around the vessel.
