The document describes a robot called ROARbot (Reduce Ocean Acidification Robot) created by students Fariz Ashraff Bin Mazlan and Umairah Nadhiah Binti Che Aznan to help reduce ocean acidification caused by carbon dioxide uptake. It provides details on the design, functions, and programming of ROARbot, which aims to save marine life by lowering carbon dioxide levels in the ocean through an automatic process. The students acknowledge the support of their teacher, school, and parents in creating ROARbot for a robotics competition.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
First of all, we would like to give our utmost gratitude to our teacher, Encik
Hisyamuddin Bin Mat Deris , Maktab Rendah Sains Mara Jeli, Kelantan (MRSM
Jeli) and also our parents for their help, commitments and sacrifices to our team.
We came all the way from having insufficient knowledge in robotics to our
achievement today. Our only way to repay them is by trying our best to win the
Robofair 2018 .

We also would like to thank our school, Maktab Rendah Sains Mara Jeli, for
providing us with utilities and exceptional environment for us to work on our
robot.

Once again, we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that is
involved in helping us with this project. Without all of their help, we might have
not gone this far.
Our Mission: Is to reduce the acidity of ocean that caused
by the uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.

Our Vision: To create a generation of young creators and


designers that can move forward to forge new possibilities
with ingenuity and creativity.

Our Objective: To save the marine life that live in the sea
such as molluscs, corals and some varieties of plankton to
form their shells and skeletons
INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT
 Reduce Ocean Acidification Robot (ROARbot) is a project that
represent the technologies of robot that can save the sea from become
more acid That caused by the uptake of carbon dioxide (co2) from the
atmosphere.

 Our robot can be used in the sea because it is a waterproof robot.It


can use anytime because it is a aoutomaticly robot. Our robot can
help to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the ocean

 We believe our robot may help to save the sea from uptake of carbon
dioxide from the atmosphere because it is very useful.
DESIGN PROCESS WENT THROUGH
THE DEVELOP SOLUTION
WHY ROARbot
The main idea that brought us together to create this
robot is to save the sea from uptake of carbon dioxide.

Furthermore, based on our research we found that most


people create robot will clean the sea from rubbish only.
So we decided to create an awesome robot which is
ROARbot that can help the marine life in the sea to live.
What is Ocean Acidification?
 When carbon dioxide (CO2) is absorbed by seawater, chemical
reactions occur that reduce seawater pH, carbonate ion concentration,
and saturation states of biologically important calcium carbonate
minerals. These chemical reactions are termed "ocean acidification" or
"OA" for short. Calcium carbonate minerals are the building blocks for
the skeletons and shells of many marine organisms. In areas where
most life now congregates in the ocean, the seawater is supersaturated
with respect to calcium carbonate minerals. This means there are
abundant building blocks for calcifying organisms to build their
skeletons and shells. However, continued ocean acidification is
causing many parts of the ocean to become undersaturated with these
minerals, which is likely to affect the ability of some organisms to
produce and maintain their shells.
Ocean Acidification Effects
Oceans absorb a substantial proportion of the CO2 emitted into the atmosphere by human
activities, with potentially negative effects on shell-forming organisms.

Increasing CO2 in the atmosphere due to human activities not only affects the climate; it also has direct,
chemical effects on ocean waters.
The oceans have absorbed between a third and a half of the CO2 humans have released into the
atmosphere since about 1850. This has slowed the rate of climate change.
When CO2 dissolves in seawater, the water becomes more acidic. The acidity of the oceans has increased
by 26 % since about 1850, a rate of change roughly 10 times faster than any time in the last 55 million years.
Associated chemical reactions can make it difficult for marine calcifying organisms, such as coral and
some plankton, to form shells and skeletons, and existing shells become vulnerable to dissolution.
The extent to which calcifying organisms are already being affected by acidification is unclear, as this is a
very new area of study. Limited evidence suggests that some organisms are more sensitive than others.
The rate at which acidification occurs is a determining factor in the extent to which calcifying organisms
will be able to adapt.
The impacts of acidification will extend up the food chain to affect economic activities such as fisheries,
aquaculture and tourism. Wherever there are marine calcifying organisms, there are risks from ocean
acidification.
Effects of ocean acidification on marine
organisms and ecosystems
 reduces the amount of carbonate

 difficult for marine organisms, such as coral and some


plankton, to form their shells and skeletons, and existing
shells may begin to dissolve. 
 sustained nature of the change, as the risk comes from the
lifetime exposure to lower pH levels
 The shells and skeletons of these animals may become less
dense or strong.
What are the effects on human
societies?
 Food: Ocean acidification has the potential to affect food security. Commercially and ecologically
important marine species will be impacted, although they may respond in different ways. Molluscs
such as oysters and mussels are among the most sensitive groups. By 2100, the global annual costs of
mollusc loss from ocean acidification could be over US$100 billion for a business-as-usual (RCP8.5)
CO2 emissions pathway.

 Coastal protection: Marine ecosystems such as coral reefs protect shorelines from the destructive
action of storm surges and cyclones, sheltering the only habitable land for several island nations. This
protective function of reefs prevents loss of life, property damage, and erosion, and has been valued at
US$9 billion per year.

 Tourism: This industry could be severely affected by the impacts of ocean acidification on marine
ecosystems (e.g. coral reefs). In Australia, the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park attracts about 1.9 million
visits each year and generates more than A$5.4 billion to the Australian economy.

 Carbon storage and climate regulation: The capacity of the ocean to absorb CO2decreases as ocean
acidification increases. More acidic oceans are less effective in moderating climate change.
FUNTION OF REDUCE OCEAN
ACIDIFICATION ROBOT
COMPLETED ROBOT
UNIQUENESS

• Using composting concept


• Easy to use and simple
• Didn’t need much energy
• Works automatically
• Use waste materials and households items

Large Motor: 2 …mm X …mm X …mm in size
Contains two main components
Suitable to use in the sea
because it is water prof robot
Our robot is small and it’s easy
to use in the sea.
CONCEPT
• Waterproff robot
ADVANTAGES OF ROBOT
• Family friendly (safe for children)
• Eco-friendly (use recycle materials)
• Easy to use (simple concept but usefull)
• Can be use at any time
• Good for home environment
• Didn’t use much energy
• Automatic robot
PROBLEM AND SOLUTIONS DURING
THE BUILDING THE ROBOT
• During the process of building the project, we faced many problems.
However, we are able to solve all of them by discussing and asking
help from our parents, teachers and seniors.

• We faced some problems when building this robot. For example,our


robot takes a long time to built the structure of it. But with cooperation
among our team, we finally solve the problem.
CONCLUSION
• Our project emphasizes on concept of “Robot!! Please Save Our Ocean”
and the technologies of robots nowdays. This robot present technologies of
robot that can help to save the sea from become more acidic and it will
make sure marin life in the sea will always safe. In conjunction of using
combination of EV3,Arduino,Tetrix and some other materials, we believe
that we able to promote in a creative and innovative way.

• We believe that our robot may solve the problem of ocean acidification
which is increasing tremendously.
