Find & Destroy Garbage - Oceanic AI Robots from SeaClear
German scientists have developed a group of robots that work in tandem and collect debris in the ocean. Each of the devices is equipped with AI.
Four robotic components make up a single system that works in direct connection. The robots are fully automated, which excludes the participation of scuba divers.
The first stage is taken over by a ground vehicle that scans the bottom. Its tasks include detecting accumulations of debris. At the second stage, an observer robot descends into the water. Finding garbage already in close proximity to itself, it conveys information about its nature - volumes, occupancy, types of pollutants. All the data obtained is used to create a visual map.
The next stage is point garbage collection by devices. With the help of a special gripping system, he collects large objects, which the boat then tows to the shore.
In the process of work, the AI system analyzes the pollution conditions, the terrain. Against this background, it adapts the work of four robots for them. the established algorithm makes it possible to predict the activity of the entire intelligent cleaning system.
At this stage, the system is being tested in Croatia. It is noted that when the test tests are over, robots will be able to classify underwater debris with an accuracy of 80%. Thereafter, collect up to 90% of the contaminants.
Traditional devices for cleaning water and ground surfaces can be found in the section of the OXO website "Industrial equipment".
