A smart boat, which is designed to collect floating waste in creeks and water canals, has

been unveiled by Dubai Municipality.

The remotely-operated 'marine scraper' has the capacity to collect and transport 1,000 kg of waste.

It features an advanced control system that uses 5G networks to execute precise manoeuvres, with

real-time monitoring made possible through satellite technology.

The scraper also has an interactive external environment system, which enhances marine safety by
automatically preventing collisions.

It has been developed locally by Emirati talents in collaboration with Al Khattal Boat Factory.
