The document discusses Protei, a modular sailing robot that can sense and clean oceans. It aims to build a fleet of 1000 boats to collect data and clean up pollution for $1.5 million through corporate sponsorship. The boats use an open hardware license and can be customized for applications like monitoring oil spills, plastic waste, and radioactivity levels. They are led by entrepreneurs who previously worked at MIT, IBM, and as cancer researchers.
