A Collaboration between the UWM’s School of Freshwater Sciences and Metro Milwaukee Sewer District

Buoyancy Controlled Drifter Robot

Goal: Track Combined Sewage Overflow(CSO) plumes of pollution dumped into Lake Michigan from Milwaukee’s sewer system.

Project: Create a vehicle with the ability to track these plumes via external drag force, sensors, and control over

its buoyancy.
