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.

Radio Frequency Signal Repetition System for connecting people located faraway in the oceans to the internet.
Our project is the idea of a system which is a group of buoys each one packed with an arduino kit with a wi-fi repeater and a booster powered by solar panels. To help manage its maintenance, there should be an online platform that goes along with it.
