The robotic seabed cleaning platform developed by TECNALIA, CNRS- LIRMM and “Servizi Tecnici”, consists in a floating platform which, through cables and winches, the seabed cleaning robot is attached. The structure is equipped with a set of sensors for underwater perception to control the robot and detect & identify the marine litter to be removed. Moreover, the robotic platform is characterized by two different tools that allow to collect the ML on the seabed: a drudge to suck up smaller litter and a gripper to grasps larger items like tires, parts of boats, fishing nets etc.

For this project, two study areas were selected and both are characterized by the presence of marine litter that has accumulated over time: a lagoon area (Sacca Fisola) and a coastal area, the latter located on an abandoned mussel farm.The lagoon site of Sacca Fisola is situated in an area where waste accumulates in substantial quantities. Consequently, the channel's seabed is marked by a significant presence of waste. Some of these waste items are buried beneath layers of sediment, while many others remain visible on the surface and can be identified using the bathymetric map generated from MultiBeam EchoSounder (MBES) data.
