How are the Mirage containers powered and controlled? You have a very interesting product and I wish y'all the best of luck!

Also, there's something about the animations in your demo video that reminds me of a Dahir Insaat video.

The Mirage will be controlled autonomously and the Captain will have an override panel in the bridge. It will be powered with batteries, which will be recharged with solar panels or a wind turbine.

Also, hahaha, just looked up Dahir Insaat, thank you I guess?!
