Detailed Description

The project “Marine Garbage Collector Inspired From Dung Beetle” is a product design exploration by Uppili Nithin Soorya B from the 2021–2023 batch at IDC, IIT Bombay, conducted under the supervision of Prof. Nishant Sharma. The concept draws biomimetic inspiration from the dung beetle to devise a novel marine garbage collection device, aiming to address pollution and waste in aquatic environments. This work sits in the “Special Project” category and reflects an effort to merge nature-inspired mechanisms with industrial design to solve real-world environmental challenges.
