Hunter's comment

Go little bot go! A self-navigating robo-sea-snake sounds terrifying but I think this guy is actually pretty cool, and his purpose is even cooler!

Yep this little autonomous guy has a combination of mechanical but also BIO SENSORS. These bio censors are made up of bacteria, crustacean and fish cells that are GROWN directly on the sensors that tell it if there's something toxic in the water so it can autonomously navigate to its source and alert us humans so we can take care of it.

I didn't even know we could grow fish cells on censors... much less the rest of the stuff this little guy can do! Also, I think he's kinda cute!

This is really such a great product. If we are going to fight pollution then this is something we really need to takewith utmost consideration. Great Hunt!

thanks @elsiekjay I totally agree, I'm glad there are folks passionate about innovating in this area

Opinion:

  • Great solution to clean bodies of water on a small scale.

  • Pros:

  • Collects pollution.

  • Works great in lakes.

Cons:

  • This product cannot scale and clean up the oceans by itself.

Nothing else just "FASCINATING'.
Hunter of the unique products is your second name ... Excellent.

Useful hunt like always @dayleeo

I am sure this kind of technology will definetly help the green environtment. At least, detect the polution right to target, so we can get the problem solving faster.

thank you as always @calprut 👍😀

Congratulations!

Awesome hunt! We just need more projects like this. This enables us to safe time and eventually have more time to clean our water efficiently when needed.

Keep on the good work!

Ive never seen something like that before, this is a great invention with a great purpose

So this thing is scouting trough the waters and detecting is there any toxic waste. Nice one. With enough of these we can cover the waters with sensors and follow the pollution closely.

It looks a little too creepy for my tastes, like a baby Nessie​ with the head sticking out. Lol! But you're right, what it does is really cool. It would be great if they develop this robot to identify pollution even at low levels so communities can put in measures to prevent them from really getting polluted, in the first place.

Excellent, it is tremendous rebot which is locating the pollution in lake. It is precious thing for new generation.

Stay blessed and keep it up.
