The technology, called REBUS SharkCam, collected high-quality oceanographic data and wide angle high-definition video of their behaviour from a distance.
According to Scottish National Heritage, it is suspected that basking sharks may even breed in Scotland - an event that has never before been captured on film. "This year's collaboration has allowed us to use a combination of camera technologies and given us a glimpse of basking sharks' underwater behaviour - a real first and very exciting. The footage has already made us reassess their behaviour, with the sharks appearing to spend much more time swimming just above the seabed than we previously thought.
Their aim is to protect marine ecosystems, habitats and species, which can help restore the area for people and wildlife.
