Apps

Report and explore marine biodiversity and litter
  • Whale Reporter
    Marine Biodiversity Assessments using Whale Watchers
    Building on the economic impact of whale watching as a form of ecotourism, we developed a system which supports on-shore and off-shore whale watching, offering an unobtrusive way to spot cetaceans.
  • Dive Reporter
    Underwater Marine Biodiversity Assessments using Scuba Divers
    Tablet application with scuba divers as citizen scientists for post-dive surveys. We collect the abundance/scarcity of marine taxa and compare the results between tourists and dive-masters.
  • Litter Reporter
    Marine Litter Geotagging using Crowdsourcing
    Mobile application with tourists as citizen scientists for reporting marine litter. Using gamification, we motivate users to geotag beached and floating marine litter.
  • ARDome
    Experience and interact within AR cyberphysical systems
    Built as a standalone ARCore mobile application, it leverages the Augmented Reality and allowing the mapping of the underwater cyber environment onto the geodesic dome structure.

IoT

Survive sensing in harsh aquatic environments
  • Poseidon
    Passive-acoustic Ocean Sensor for Entertainment and Interactive Data-gathering in Opportunistic Nautical-activities
    Low-cost PAM system for nautical citizen science and real-time acoustic augmentation of whale-watching experiences. POSEIDON identifies vocal acoustic samples of whales and dolphins.
  • SeaMote
    Interactive Remotely Operated Apparatus for Aquatic Expeditions
    Low-cost, long-range, radio controlled USV, based on IoT and LoRa, intended to be used for aquatic expeditions collecting environmental telemetry, like temperature, humidity, GPS position...
  • Triton
    Low-cost, long-range bio-marker for assessing environmental telemetry using LoRa and IoT.
    Experimental apparatus of a bio-tag, to be placed on turtles, capable of collecting the environmental telemetry. Study reports feasibilty analysis using remote sensing through LoRa protocol and modeling the geolocation position.

AI

Identify marine species or debris with deep learning

1. Select the model

Select one of the models right after this section. Each model interprets imagery based on its training.

2. Upload an image

Select an image and upload it to our server. Our AI will evaluate and grant you the results.

3. Check the results

The image is now classified. You can confirm the identification drawn on the image.

Domes

Impact aquatic literacy with interactive environments
  • Dolphin
    Understanding the Carbon footprint of Sea-vessels
    Dome floats at the sea surface, and is moored to the public beach with ropes. Is built on an existing water platform, allowing visitors to explore it. It explains the consequences of CO2 emissions, coming from the whale watching sea-vessels
  • Seal
    Exploration of Scuba Divers revealing Seal Record Depths
    Proposed installation resembles one of the endangered seals on Madeira archipelago, called Lobo Marinho. Such seals have been recently spotted having in-water short naps, and is therefore the rationale for being deployed at seabed.
  • Turtle
    Revealing Turtle Encounters with Marine Litter from Nesting Beaches
    Deployed at the protected turtle nesting beaches, the users scan the dome with their own mobile phone’s camera. The dome acts as a 2D marker to trigger a Cross Reality (XR) experience.
  • Whale
    Fixing Carbon using On-Shore Interactive Projection Mapping
    Designed for the public beach and night projections, audience interacts with it using body gestures and integrated sonar modules. Interaction is based on the proximity of the person to the dome.
  • Seabird
    Depicting the Food Diet using Off-shore Resting House for Seabirds
    Installed at the sea surface and acting as a lighthouse close to the harbor, it is deployed on root trajectories of whale-watching sea-vessels. Such vessels pass by the geodesic dome to observe the gathering of sea-birds.
