Aqua-Carapace
Aqua-Carapace takes its inspiration from the two sea creatures Oyster and Mobius Nautilus. Designed using sustainable and eco-friendly materials to harmonize with nature, it runs on power produced by solar panels and hydro-turbine. It maintains a reservoir of oxygen and food with the help of algae-culture media and hydroponic pond.
