PlastiSwarm

The world's first automated swarm of buoys for microplastic detection.

Definition

What are Microplastics?

Microplastics are small plastic particles in the environment generally under 5mm in size.

introduction

The Problem

Microplastics impact not just marine ecosystems, but human health as well. Currently, there is no large-scale, quantifiable data on microplastics.

What is plastiswarm?

Our Solution


PlastiSwarm is a swarm of automated buoys designed with a filter and onboard AI system to recognize and quantify microplastics in our waterways. The buoys communicate with each other to identify target areas for plastic cleanup.

$358 Trillion

358 trillion microplastics float in our oceans.

$19 Billion

Environmental plastics cost the global economy $19 billion each year.

14 Billion

Each year, over 14 million tons of plastic enter our seas.

The Problem

  • 358 trillion microplastics are in our oceans, with an added 14 billion particles every year.

  • These microplastics are ingested by marine life such as zooplankton, destroying marine ecosystems.

  • These effects travel up the food chain, and eventually end up harming humans. Microplastics have been linked to cancer, reproductive issues, heart attacks, and other health concerns.
