Current advancements in oceanographic research are limited by the complex and often specialized integration of marine hardware required for data collection. In response, Remora aims to further develop the Bristlemouth platform, a plug-and-play system for marine hardware, and become a scalable and affordable solution for collecting ocean data. With the use of a Raspberry Pi camera mounted on a durable, solar-powered buoy, Remora can capture and wirelessly transmit live image data, requiring minimal user intervention and low maintenance. Remora’s ability to be self-sustaining and user-friendly allows users to focus on making potential breakthroughs in research without worrying about the complexities of marine hardware integration.
