e818d449 17 A 28-year-old MIT graduate named You Wu spent six years [1]developing a low-cost robot designed to find leaks in pipes early , both to save water and to avoid bigger damage later from bursting water mains. &quot;Called Lighthouse, the robot looks like a badminton birdie,&quot; reports Fast Company. &quot;A soft &#x27;skirt&#x27; on the device is covered with sensors. As it travels through pipes, propelled by the flowing water, suction tugs at the device when there&#x27;s a leak, and it records the location, making a map of critical leaks to fix.&quot; From the report:<br/><br/>&gt; MIT doctoral student You Wu spent six years developing the design, building on research that earlier students began under a project sponsored by a university in Saudi Arabia, where most drinking water comes from expensive desalination plants and around a third of it is lost to leaks. It took three years before he had a working prototype. Then Wu got inspiration from an unexpected source: At a party with his partner, he accidentally stepped on her dress. She noticed immediately, unsurprisingly, and Wu realized that he could use a similar skirt-like design on a robot so that the robot could detect subtle tugs from the suction at each leak. Wu graduated from MIT in June, and is now launching the technology through a startup called [2]WatchTower Robotics . The company will soon begin pilots in Australia and in Cambridge, Massachusetts. One challenge now, he says, is creating a guide so water companies can use the device on their own.<br/><br/><br/><br/>[1] https://www.fastcompany.com/90232363/this-leak-seeking-robot-just-won-the-u-s-james-dyson-award<br/><br/>[2] http://watchtowerrobotics.com/
