How OceanAid works :

1. By using dataset from NASA of chloropyll concentration, the satellite detects which part of ocean have high concentration of chlorophyll.
2. User selects the location on the map from the app and start the mission. Smart turtle will be released into the ocean and go to the designated location
3. Smart turtle has filters at it's mouth that will filter out large particles and only allowing water and small particles to enter the smart turtle's body
4. Inside the body will have another filter that will filter the microplastics and trap them into the storage that is located in both side of the turtle. The water will be released out
5. Once the filter is full, or once the mission has reached the deadline of maximum days in the ocean, it will return back to the base to refill the energy
6. The collected mircoplastics will be given to scientists for them to do research on how to break down particles between the plastic bonds

Why our solution is different from others ?

Ans : Our solution goes under the sea, under the ocean to trap and filter the microplastics while existing solution only traps plastics on the surface
