Deep Sea Exploring
Fluke is a diving robot designed for the deep abyss. The data collected serves to deepen our understanding of the ocean as an ecosystem. The research probes are equipped with flexible, pressure-resistant carriers suitable for holding various sensors in order to prepare for the respective missions. Extremely effective and featuring reduced energy consumption, the low-complexity drive system concept is based on the movements of a fish and can be manufactured affordably.
Designers: Ralf Kittmann & Annalisa Koch

Sweet design, but how it will make maneuvers? It has no extra fins, even if we suppose that it has ballast tanks like in submarines it will be difficult to control or make maneuvers I think.

Not enough information to go by on this fish. I agree with Iskender.
