Generally the places where the most trash is tossed in the ocean are the still developing countries. Oftentimes they lack proper waste management services to deal with garbage in mass. So it ends up in local water supplies. It's quite sad honestly. 😞
Maybe make a detachable net bag coming out from the back? Cuz currently it doesn't look effective at all. And yeah, someone mentioned adding solar battery on top.
josemaria kyosan It's expensive to develop the tech, but not as much to replicate it. the more this technology is purchased the cheaper it'll become... If ONLY our vocal celebrities would put their money where their mouth is on helping the world... Or atleast their cities....
Hahahaha, all the people with no sense of a budget be "Nobody cares, well always have enough money, even though our national debt is in the trillions now. 😆wow seriously? okay
@Penny Bee actually I'm an automation engineer with many inventions to my name throughout the world. This is a simple simon device... haven't seen this video in a long time, but when you see the volumes of trash in the water this is just a waste of time.
Impressive little toy, but: - it's not autonomous - really small - needs to be remote controlled - has no container under the surface to collect more garbage You need to think bigger if you ever want to clean the most pollutes waters on earth
I think its a good foundation to build upon.. You'd think with all the autonomous robotic devices in the works or already out in the world, something like this would have come sooner.. I can just imagine one of these bad boys in San Diego would a couple of seals riding on top of it..
Think BIGGER Think about SHIPS with melting plants to crush or Melt the Garbage into compressed CUBES for efficiency then inject an Air pocket(floatation) Then you can easily tranfer the plastic for Tagging and pick up or barge transfer?.
Mr. RESPECT BEAR it would be almost impossible to compress it into the rubric cube size your talking about depends how much and what the material is it paper bags of air tight bottles ?!
And floatation is a very smart idea and melting might be the best idea but the money needs would be in the 100 thousands just for development and a prototype
SuperBoyGamer I disagree with you on that. I am talking ocean garbage the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean Garbage patch. This is almost always plastic. The close in shore garbage is a whole other problem.
Heard a great quote but ima summarize it, we know we wont reach all but the things we can, they are worth saving. Yes it is roo much, but the difference we can do now is worth it all
This is such a great contraption to help make a better environment for animals and us. I say keep on upgrading it while you make more or bigger ones to take out more trash. ❤️
Suggestions- Solar panels Bigger size, thinking size of a tugboat Net bag that scoops trash up Autonomous-ness like a Roomba but better With this you can save the world
Congratulations! It is a cool initiative, which has a wide field to evolve, for example, needs to have a front door to close when full of trash collected, among other evolutions required for a device with this proposal
Now make a army of huge solar powered versions and send them out into the ocean. When they get full, they return to port, unload their trash and return to the ocean.
Now all we need is a solar panel on one of those cute drones and place it in the middle of the most notoriously dirty ocean and voila we got ourselves an automated cleaning machine... well at least that's the case provided that no one stealing it or it being eaten by a cryptid
Nice and Smart 1 which can b used at small scale level to clearly clean small water bodies, but i humbly plead ranmarine to develop the 1 for larger water body sake with many other integrated ideas.
its a good concept, but wouldn't it be better if it could take said trash shred it and add it to its own bio-fuel mixture tanks to self power itself and then we can just release them out in to the water ways to clean on their own, only stopping for occasional maintenance, now that would be something worth making happen ;) #peace
