So we see the plastic pieces floating slowly through the sensor, and the computer on board will process this image, and measure the size of each particle, so we have a rough estimate of how much plastic there is in the water.
Plastbitarna flyter sakta igenom sensorn, datorn ombord analyserar bilden, mäter varje partikels storlek, och vi får en grov uppskattning över antalet plastpartiklar i vattnet.
