As global warming accelerates, atmospheric temperatures continue to rise and underwater temperatures are also rising. As a result, the aquatic ecosystem is now different from before, and as the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water becomes insufficient, mass deaths of aquatic organisms are increasing. At a close distance, this applies to farmed fish, which can cause damage to fishermen, and at a distance, it is a major problem where the ecosystem may collapse due to mass death of organisms that cannot adapt to the changed underwater temperature. “BREATHEIN” is an AI-based oxygen supply robot that can solve the problem. This robot can directly visit areas where dissolved oxygen is low in the water, lower pipes to supply oxygen through a pump, and cool the water temperature during the summer to prevent the mass death of aquatic life. Considering that it will be used a lot in the summer, you can charge it by installing a solar generator outside. You can also recognize the problem of dead battery or other malfunctions and move it to the section where people can collect it. This robot will serve as a future solution to one of the many problems facing a world where global warming is accelerating.
