Smart Pleco

Description of Invention

Smart Pleco is an unmanned surface vehicle which aims to constantly monitor waterbodies、 to prevent water pollution. After making the underwater robot for more than 4 years、 I have developed awareness of water pollution issues and we have noticed that water pollution is no longer rare nowadays、 especially in my home country China where severe water pollution occurs almost every year. With these four main innovations here、 Smart Pleco can achieve maximum productivity in terms of automated cruising、 data collection、 and visualization. I have done some testings in a 22000(m2) lake in Macau. The reason why water pollution is so severe in China is the lack of appropriate monitoring. Although no sign of pollution is found in this lake、 we still believe that it is necessary to constantly monitor it、 as well as all the other waterbodies、 to prevent potential pollution.
