Underwater extendable vacuum cleaner
The general idea of our project is that you can help the marine ecosystem by yourself using our project.
Images that have inspired us
Images of prototypes
In the first prototype, the arm was extensible and had a clamp to collect the garbage.
In the second prototype we have incorporated the clamp to go back, and we have put a system that can turn plastic into fish food (the box with the tube next to it). We have put the feedback from our colleagues Neco and Jana, who told us to go backwards with the clamp.
In the third prototype we have changed the material for wood and the shape, apart from that we have given it a bit of mobility, and we have painted it.
Here is the comic that interprets that the diver who is on the boat sees that the sea is dirty and proceeds to get off the boat with the extendable underwater vacuum cleaner and cleans all the garbage.
Storyboard with diagrams
This diagram explains what the extensible underwater vacuum cleaner consists of and what it does.
And this diagram explains what each function of each part of the underwater vacuum cleaner consists of.
