A cable company is running fiber into our neighborhood.  They are using something I  hadn't seen before. An air-driven box about the size of a small car's rear differential sits at a pothole and goes thud-thud-thud, apparently driving a probe to the next pothole maybe 10-15 yards away. I didn't see any provision for steering it or anyone tracking it, but didn't watch for long. Anybody know how it is guided?
