Why this topic?
We are interested in the topic because we are both interested in robotics. We thought it would be a good time to practice our robotics skills while tying in deep. We are also interested in the sizs and mystery of our ocean, which our robot can help explore. However, when deciding on the focus of our project, we wanted to focus on the aspect of making our robot good for the environment, instead of opting for the easy route in using harmful materials.
How can we make a robot for underwater exploration that's built out of environmentally friendly materials?
We will do research to see if the materials meet our criteria. The materials need to be able to hold up in saltwater for a long time. The material also needs to be made of eco friendly materials that are strong. Whatever material we use needs to be relatively cheap.
