The Challenge | Internet on the Ocean

The internet is not easily accessible in many areas of the world, like the Earth’s oceans. Fishermen, sailors, and others have limited data connection with the rest of the world. Although satellite internet is widely available, it is very expensive for a user to implement. Your challenge is to design a low-cost method of delivering internet to people located far away on the ocean.

4G in ocean

The main idea of the project depends on designing sequential system of floating cell towers to transmit the signal of the main network and cover the total area of shipping routes within the Indian Ocean. The main cell tower will be constructed on the coas

Futurefollowers

A structural model has been prepared for the floating cell towers, the model supposed to consist of a power supply made of batteries that could be continuously recharged by solar cells or wind turbine or a device that generates

electricity from waves movement and Network Relay Device .
