Hello Everyone,
I am a plastic pollution campaigner and currently trying to find ways for technology to find a solution. (BBC Story abt my project)
Have you seen this “Thrash Robot” from Chicago? I had a great chat with Alex yesterday who is making these robots and also open sourcing the design etc. I am working with the Canal & River Trust and maybe the Environment Agency to find a time/ location to launch this in the UK and we can try to get the Mayor Involved.
Would you know how can we make this happen in the UK?
I was wondering if someone in the community would like to pick this project up. If I get the tech support, I will sort out the logistical and other issues.
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers,
Dhruv

I work at RS at the moment so I can poke around to see if they would be interested in helping and get you a person to talk to if you like.

I think london's streets are far worse than the waterways due to the council-encouraged habit of putting rubbish out on the pavements. But you've got to start somewhere and waterways have less potential for abuse than an internet-steered streetsweeper.
I might be interested in joining in, but there could be other avenues too - what about the various robot and junk-recycling TV shows ? What about Farnell (Element 14) and RS - they like to sponsor newsworthy projects and will donate lots of parts.

Hey I'm a boater on the London canals and also work in a facility much like the hackspace so i have machines at my disposal to build stuff. This sounds interesting and if it is small enough (under 3m) it can count as a tender to an existing licensed boat. Defo up for a chat!
