Hi Sam Animals and birdlife in the water typically perceive the ASVs as any other vessel on the surface and naturally swim away. The speed of the vessels allows animals to easily out-swim the drones, except for micro-organisms attached to waste. Overall, the drones do not possess any elements that can trap, harm, or disable animals, and there have been no reported injuries or deaths in the first seven years of operation. Per size, the unit weights 72kg so can be carried by 2 persons to the waters edge, or deployed via a trolley
@ranmarine very good to know! If you ever invent a one person version who knows we could really clean up the water... now I'm pondering how you get it out when full of trash..
Can it be dangerous for small animals/birds like ducklings or smlr.?
This is really amazing, technology at it again
How much did it cost to make this?
Now I'm curious... how many thousands it costs 🤔🤔🤔 and if I could find I mini one 😆 for the annoying litter I can't reach with a net
It's a Roomba for the water!
Same as above/below... how does it not harm fish and wildlife? But also do you have smaller versions that don't require a lorry/flatbed and crane?
