Description

RiverGuard’s mission is to protect and preserve waterways by using technology to identify and reduce pollution. The system uses an object detection model to automatically locate and classify trash within images or video of rivers and lakes, removing the need for slow, manual observation. By providing real-time insight into waste accumulation, RiverGuard helps communities, researchers, and organizations take faster, more effective action to keep waterways clean. Its goal is to create a sustainable monitoring system that empowers people to understand pollution patterns and support long-term environmental responsibility. RiverGuard represents a step toward cleaner water, healthier ecosystems, and a more informed approach to environmental protection.
