I figured that a computer looking for wave patterns could cancel out all the
obvious ones and then look for a hump that moved like a sub over time.
If they could, the subs would then probably find a wave pattern and pace it
to hide the motion of their hump by cloaking themselves in a wave pattern.
Getting kind of far afield from kayaks here but understanding the difference
between surface vessels and subs might shed some light on how a surface
vessel works.
