Floating robot that collects trash from small to medium bodies of water.

Started Oct. 1, 2021

Abstract or project description

Our project is a box with propellers on the bottom. A piece moves from front to back, compressing the trash onto a platform. The platform rises to open up space below for more carrying capacity. The robot can operate either autonomously or by remote control. [Project Name Here] is targeted for use in retention ponds and small lakes.
