dc.description.abstract |
Ensuring the protection of natural habitats from growing coastal pollution includes the important task of cleaning plastics from beaches. The buildup of plastics and debris not only endangers marine life but also amplifies the problems, underscoring the need for effective intervention measures.
While manual beach cleaning efforts are admirable, they are time-consuming and can lead to health issues for workers, including musculoskeletal diseases. Moreover, relying solely on manual labor proves inadequate given the large scale of the problem. Thus, there is an urgent need for advanced technological solutions capable of assisting and enhancing human efforts. This paper advocates for the deployment of intelligent beach cleaning robots as a promising approach towards a more sustainable and efficient strategy for mitigating coastal pollution. |
