Limpet 

Limpet is a project done by a RCA graduate, Alexander Loudon. As an ocean pollution sensor, it can be attached to anything that goes into open water and inform users on how clean their local beach or ocean is. The data collected from this gadget are transmitted to a mobile app, in which people can easily monitor their environments. By informing how polluted their local oceans, it could engage people as communities as it could encourage further attempts to clean up their (and our) oceans and eliminate waste from the coastal water, which it will finally impact human health, sea-life species and even ecosystems.
