Fishmobile
Fishmobile is a passion project built by three college students who asked the boldest of questions:
If we can go to space, why can’t fish go to land?
What started as a curiosity has turned into a full-blown engineering experiment in animal-machine interaction, robotics, and UX design (for fish, of course). Whether you're here out of curiosity or for the absurdity —it’s all real, and it’s all fish-powered.

Our Journey
The SyBBURE Searle Program
At Vanderbilt University, we started this project while participating in a research program. The SyBBURE Searle Program aims to incubate and inspire the next generation of innovators through research, design, and community.
They create a research and design playground where uniquely different people gather to do cool stuff. The program funds undergraduate students at Vanderbilt University to explore any aspect of STEM that interests them through independent research and team-based design projects. Individualized mentorship and training is provided to promote student personal and professional development within an extraordinary and inclusive community.
