High-Level Project Summary
our idea is a Smart store can be installed in a particular part of merchant ships The Smart store contains an arm robot and a capacitive sensor detects if there any marine debris ,defines their location ,ratio and wind speed there then the arm will collect samples of the waste There will be a mesh using nanotechnology for very small debris .The captain of the ship will take these samples and put it in a special boxes in the harbor .if we put this Smart store in a lot of merchant ships it will survey a wide area of the ocean.

Detailed Project Description
We all know that the world suffers from waste but let us shed light on oceans ,seas and rivers. Technology solves our problems and we use it daily, what if oceans also benefits from this technology!!
Using technology and artificial intelligence we will do a device we can call it as (Smart store) this Smart store will be installed on a particular part of the ship and this store will contain a robot and a sensor this sensor will detect the waste and the marine debris around its surrounding then the role of robot comes it will be out from the depot and catch some samples of this marine debris ,monitors its location and calculate the ratio of this waste then the robot will go into its store if the marine debris were very small we will use a mesh to collect these small parts (in making this mesh we will use nanotechnology)
When the ship captain reach the harbor he just will open the store and take the sample which was monitored by the robot and will put it into a special boxes will be put in every harbor every box includes a sample, location and its ratio specialized people who are responsible for protection of the seas and oceans will go to the harbor open these boxes, check it out and classify it( if it harmful or non affective) in both they will send a team to collect this waste if it harmful for the sea we will rescue the ocean and Marine organisms ,if it was none affective we May recycle it and make a huge industry if it was non recyclable we will get rid of it in a safe way.
So we will monitors huge quantity of Marine debris widely with out a huge effort because the ships weren't sent specially the ships were on their way.
Now our view is targeted because we won't send random campaigns , every thing under control.
if we put this smart store in a lot of merchant ships it will survey wide area of the ocean.

Hackathon Journey
It was very nice and inspiring .
We choosed this challenge because it's urgent issue and threatens our and marine organisms lives and it's expected that in 2050 plastic will be more than fish in water so we should take a step forward .The most important thing we all believe in our team that cooperation is the key to make the world a best place to live in
and we hope to affect world even if it will be by a small percentage
We believe that Hope and the team work and exchange of our views is the secret of any success
