Submersible robot system and methods of employing same

A submersible robot system for inspecting and/or grooming objects in a marine environment, the system comprising:

• a housing;
• a sensor configured to generate sensor data;
• a processor disposed in the housing and in communication with the sensor;
• and
• a plurality of adhesion engines disposed within a housing, wherein each of the plurality of adhesion engines is in communication with the processor and includes:
• a plurality of magnetic adhesion devices structured and arranged to secure the submersible robot system to the object being inspected/groomed, and
• a magnetic switch motor for switching on and off at least one of the magnetic adhesion devices;
• wherein the processor is configured to adjust a magnetic field of at least one of the magnetic adhesion devices to adjust a level of adhesion of the submersible robot system to the surface of the object being inspected/groomed.
