Hunter's comment

Go little bot go! A self-navigating robo-sea-snake sounds terrifying but I think this guy is actually pretty cool, and his purpose is even cooler!

Yep this little autonomous guy has a combination of mechanical but also BIO SENSORS. These bio censors are made up of bacteria, crustacean and fish cells that are GROWN directly on the sensors that tell it if there's something toxic in the water so it can autonomously navigate to its source and alert us humans so we can take care of it.

I didn't even know we could grow fish cells on censors... much less the rest of the stuff this little guy can do! Also, I think he's kinda cute!

This is really such a great product. If we are going to fight pollution then this is something we really need to takewith utmost consideration. Great Hunt!

thanks @elsiekjay I totally agree, I'm glad there are folks passionate about innovating in this area

Opinion:

  • Great solution to clean bodies of water on a small scale.

  • Pros:

  • Collects pollution.

  • Works great in lakes.

Cons:

  • This product cannot scale and clean up the oceans by itself.

Nothing else just "FASCINATING'.
Hunter of the unique products is your second name ... Excellent.

Useful hunt like always @dayleeo

I am sure this kind of technology will definetly help the green environtment. At least, detect the polution right to target, so we can get the problem solving faster.

thank you as always @calprut 👍😀

Congratulations!

Great Hunt!

Awesome hunt! We just need more projects like this. This enables us to safe time and eventually have more time to clean our water efficiently when needed.

Keep on the good work!

Ive never seen something like that before, this is a great invention with a great purpose

So this thing is scouting trough the waters and detecting is there any toxic waste. Nice one. With enough of these we can cover the waters with sensors and follow the pollution closely.

It looks a little too creepy for my tastes, like a baby Nessie​ with the head sticking out. Lol! But you're right, what it does is really cool. It would be great if they develop this robot to identify pollution even at low levels so communities can put in measures to prevent them from really getting polluted, in the first place.

Excellent, it is tremendous rebot which is locating the pollution in lake. It is precious thing for new generation.

Stay blessed and keep it up.

Why stop at lakes? This would be great for detecting pollution in rivers as well either as regular checkups or even in cases of oil or other chemical spills. The combination of mechanical and bio sensors is an interesting solution.

totally agree @direwolf ! i guess maybe this little guy has a hard time with certain currants, and he doesnt go underwater- yet! but it's a step in the right dorection- we'll get there :D

This is the perfect example of using robot tech to solve the problems that otherwise seem to have no solution. The person behind this robot snake with sensors is really genius. He's done phenomenal job all on his own. Excellent hunt @dayleeo.

Very good Hunt friend!!! An autonomous swimming snake robot, with bio-mechanichal sensors for pollution detection!! And yes indeed, is amazing how can grow fish cells on sensors.

This one real cool invention! A device that has an organic material sensor out from an living aquatic organism that can detect toxic substances in water areas which helps humanity distant themselves from harm. I like it! I will give this hunt a score of 5 out of 5.

This is an amazing product and i think it must be placed in every lake because we know that pollution in waters are increasing day by day, it is harmful both for humans and aquatic life and i think such robots are really helpful & most economic/precise way to reduce pollution from waters. Great Hunt

The fact that it is a bot is amazing (artificial intelligence is just the way forward) ..... It's a great hunt

pros:

  • very unique and great

  • can track pollution of the lake

  • very useful

cons:

-none

Fun to play with but also provides tons o' useful information and we as humans need all the help we can muster.............

Helllo @dayleeo, ""Envirobot"" is Fantastic Hunt you Created here.

That is really cool project in vich a sensor robot with many amazing features helped to clean water and fought against pollution. Thanks for introducing valuable and informative product.

This is very cool. THis simple product can help the environment. It can track down pollution in the lake. I hope it can be used to solve other pollution too.

Hi @dayleeo

It is said water is an essential element for the survival of life on Earth. It is also much more necessary to make the water clean and pollution free environment. Actually, Envirobot is one of those urgent needs of the society that have very much productive and positive impact. Highly appreciated the idea :)

Outstanding hunt without any doubt :)

Again another very useful hunt by you @dayleeo. Saving nature and ourselves is a great contribution to the humanity.

This innovation would pretty much help salvage lakes or even rivers that had been polluted with lotta trash, and it will also restore the already polluted environment for aquatic animals. Great hunt.

very true! @ememovic imagine being able to identify the source of pollution before it kills our bodies of water!

This is great.
Creating a robot that can detect water pollution in order to help marine lives is great.
Envirobot has come to put an end to water pollution.

Keep hunting

It is a robot that can be used to protect the environment such as detecting water pollution. It looks like a sea snake or earthworm. I enjoy seeing these products.

@supergiant 👍😀 me too thanks so much for your comment!

Wow .. This will go a long way in helping keeping our lake very clean with little efforts by man .. It is going to be automated ...

@falopey yes absolutely- always patrolling!

Cool hunt. This self navigating envirobot is great with bio censors to clean up the water and reduce water pollution. Great hunt.

Great Hunt @dayleoo

This will be of help to our environment in general, and a means of alerting human.

Nice hunt you have here.

Pros

  • Can easily track sea or lake pollution through its sensor.
  • It is robotic snake and also looks like that and this has a bio sensor to detect any kind of pollution
  • With high rate sea and river pollution these days, this kind of robotic detection of source of pollution will make the remedial actions faster
  • Cons
    None

    Well, almost like a snake, if we see it more closely it is a great robot. With it we can avoid catastrophes in rivers like floods if used at large scales in engineering excellent hunting

    Marvellous Hunt @dayleeo

    This one is just amazing product I have came across. Everyday, I am just seeing the gadget only for humans only and this one is great for conserving our nature.

    Why I think this is amazing?

    • It can swim through any water surface without affecting other aquatic plants and animals lifestyle there and thus helps to balance the pond ecosystem.

    • This robot can give data on pollutants present in water very accurately and fastly than human investigations.

    • The most exciting is that this autonomous guy can just save biologists or researchers time and efforts.

    Happy Hunting

    great comment @leoumesh 👍😀thankyou!

    Welcome😁I researched myself a little bit to add comment though😋

    Hello friend, this is a very good thing to study pollution in lakes is a priority to help the development of species, good hunting.

    Envirobot seems to be a great way to track pollution of lakes. Thanks for sharing. Awesome hunt.

    Pollution is a great bane of the environment with water pollution one of the leading causes. This is a great innovative way to prevent such and I hope this product gains wave

    😜

    Nice Hunt! This Robot looks like a snake to Tracks the pollution in the lakes with the help of intelligent sensors to aware us and helps us to take care. Thanks for the nice hunt Good luck friend

    Great hunt @dayleeo Wow, this is an amazing product to take care of the evironment. I also didnt know that we could grow fish cells on censors. Really awesome discovery.

    feels like we're living in a sci fi movie right? 😂@verasj

    This is amazing. A swimming robot with multiple sensors for pollution detection in lakes. This will really help to reduce water pollution.

    Hi Dear @dayleeo.
    Its very interesting, I really appreciate this hunt. envirobot, powerful electronic eel which underground railways low abuse latest lakes. i have to mention which telecommunications placed at allure culminate. fine drag smart. Keep it up & wishing best

    impressive product quite revolutionary from my point of view just for the simple fact that it can be used to see and plan solutions in pollution in lakes or even in places where the being does not arrive is great

    I love seeing hunts like this. There is so much going on within the world of environmental clearnup. We really need to start taking care of the planet.

    Great hunt.

    eco are my favorite things to share for sure, gives me hope that we might not totally wreck this beautiful planet ! @gattino

    great hunt. I am afraid of the robot being toxic in future. I recommend not to put more robots with biosensors in water. fun. really awesome hunt. we are having less access the things under water. If it is a small thing which produce toxic, then we are helpless to find it. But now this eel will heal.

    Pros and Cons
    Pros:
    -Help monitor the environment
    -Save the planet

    Cons:
    -Difficult to deploy to many different place due to cost

    Water pollution has been a great threat to aquatic life and human, now the reduction of water pollution is possible with less stress, this is brilliant, great hunt hunter

    thanks very much @sola3097 !

    this could be a live saver to our environment and it is also risk low to track pollution. cheers for the hunt

    Cheers

    the advantages of this small robot have a mechanical combination and also BIO SENSOR. This bio sensor consists of bacteria, crustaceans and fish cells that are FOUND directly on the sensor that tells them if there is something toxic in the water so that it can autonomously navigate to the source and warn us humans so that we can take care of it.

    What a great product, it lays the lakes and informs without being contaminated thanks to its sensors of bacteria cells, crustaceans and fish. What technology Great hunting.

    thanks very much @junior182 !

    Great hunt

    Its function is really awesome because we have filled our water bodies with waste . Shout out to BIO SENSORS.

    @drqamranbashir 👍😀big shouts out! lol kinda crazy right?

    Yes, this guy is pretty cool and cute but it is also very useful for tracking down pollution in Lakes. Great hunt.

    Everyday we come to know that something is invented in US or Europe etc. And being a human of this world I love those people who are serving the mankind by using their talent. I love this hunt, great

    @steenit awesome things are being made all over the world <3 the internet makes us more global than ever- for example steemhunt started with out lovely korean team!

    It's a good tool to look at the ecosystem in the water. When you look at dangerous places, you can't go in there, so you'll see fewer accidents. It looks like the design needs complementing. It is expected to be more successful if the appearance is similar to the animal.

    agreed- im sure this thing looks SO strange to the animals who live in these lakes haha 😱@forealife

    The communities, businesses related to fishing and aquatic regions should be informed of this new invention, so they can clean the waters and take care of the environment.

    Wow this is really epic. Envirobot, the Robotic Eel That Tracks Down Pollution in Lakes. I must say that technology at its peak. Great hunt indeed. Keep it up with good work

    I love this hunt. This is a great invention by great people. In my point of view this should be the hunt of the day. Keep hunting

    Water is very important and taking care of it is our duty, it is very helpful to have this device that tracks if there is pollution in rivers, so we can take appropriate measures and be able to solve, this is fantastic, it continues like this

    its our most precious resource @vengador !

    A self-navigating robo-sea-snake that helps us know about something harmful or disastrous ahead of time through its sensors...this is too good to be true idea. I think if it's modified and improved to use it on a larger scale, it can also help us decrease the death toll caused by shark kills. Great hunt!

    Hi @dayleeo, this is nice info that you have shared with us, I never knew about such a thing fish cells on materials amazing, good you shared with us.

    isnt that wild!!? that one is new for me as well @babarmallah786 !

    Nice Hunt.
    I hope this kind of things are going to operate at various places.

    This is an amazing robot that swims like an eel and detects pollution in lakes. This robot is able to measure the water pollution perfectly. Wonderful hunt!

    This in itself is amazing, but it'll be really interesting to see where this tech can go.

    Theoretically, there could be a version of this which searches for a particular polutant in the water, and treats it (with something to fight/negate the polutant) at its source. One alone wouldn't make a dent, but an army of them would - if you released 10k, 100k, or a million of them into a large body of water, and they all worked together, they could "clean-up" the water.

    It's tech like this, which might be at the forefront to cleaning up the mess we are, and have been creating - and might allow us to actually fight back against the damage we've already done to our environment.

    Or am I being too optimistic?
