Damien Salle, Coordinator of Robotics & Automation & Project manager in TECNALIA, share with us how his team has handled the legacy plastics and marine litter lying on the #Seabed, that fragments into microplastics and contaminates shells, fishes and humans. Within the MAELSTROM_H2020 (www.maelstrom-h2020.eu, TECNALIA envisioned a radically new solution by adapting the cable-robotics technology to the marine and underwater environment. 

We thus created the worldwide first Robotic Seabed Cleaning Platform based on #CableRobotics technology (patent pending). We are now operating in the Venice lagoon and coastal area as test-sites for this disruptive tecnology, to remove marine litter and assess the impact on the environment of the cleaning.

We already envision many more opportunities and potential use of the #underwater #Cablerobot, so if you want to share your ideas and projects, just get in touch.
