SeaWe
SeaWe is a self-contained, zero-emission, autonomous boat. It works through solar panels and propellers. These generate electrical energy when it is driven by the sail and the wind, which produces the autonomous movement of the boat. In case of lack of wind, the propellers turn on to navigate.
We know how important it is for you to know where the products you buy come from, so Sea We is completely transparent with its processes and results. For us it is a pleasure to tell you and make you participate in our project. From the moment SeaWe collects the first piece of plastic from the sea until you receive your swimsuits at home, we take care of every aspect, including sustainability to ensure that our mission and vision, as well as yours, are fulfilled.

How it works?
Garbage Net
Our boat has a net, which is lowered to the water level as soon as the garbage collection begins. This net has a float so that when it is full of waste, it changes position and thus, the transfer of the garbage is easier.
Specs
SeaWe has state-of-the-art, zero-emission technology. The same that will be monitored from a port while sailing its 12 hours a day, in case of a failure, assistance is immediate.
Artificial intelligence
Radar
Vision camera 500m
GPS
Compass
Management system (Battery, energy, communications, etc)
Satellite Supervisor
Solar cells
Jib
The Jib functions like an airplane wing. The difference is that the sail is held vertically on the boat. It has the same performance as a conventional wing but with a more efficient lift.
The sail can rotate 180 degrees to navigate in all angles of the wind. It has built-in solar cells to capture solar energy and generate electrical energy for its motors. The Jib is the most sustainable option for the propulsion of a boat.
Solar panels
Mono-crystalline and multi-crystalline (c-Si) panels are the oldest technology and also the most powerful. When sized correctly and matched to appropriate batteries, these are the panels to use for running large DC loads such as lights, a TV, radio or VCR. Our current assortment of this type includes single-crystalline products from Nature Power.
In crystalline panels, silicon, the primary material in quartz sand, is grown into crystals, refined, purified (by an expensive process), sliced into thin wafers and “doped” with the addition of chemicals. Solar cells create electrical current, the quantity determined by the size and efficiency of the cell and the amount of light. Solar modules are created by connecting cells in parallel to increase amperage and in series to increase voltage. Typical solar modules have 30 or 36 cells (generating between 14 and 18V DC).
This 90-watt Rigid Monocrystalline Solar Panel is about 34 "long and weighs about 15 pounds. Requiring a charge controller, it can generate almost 5 amps under optimum conditions.
Motor Cruise 2.0 FP
Space saving, powerful, lightweight.
Wide range due to higher efficiency.
Safe, thanks to the magnetic emergency shutdown switch.
We recommend the Cruise 2.0 / 4.0 for sailboats up to 4 tons
It works with lithium or AGM / lead-gel batteries.
All models with on-board computer and GPS display: real-time display of speed and input power, as well as exact battery status and remaining range when used in combination with Power 26-104 lithium battery
Very robust design: protected from corrosion, suitable for salt water and completely waterproof.
We All Project
Universidad Iberoamericana
This project is carried out in order to combat the enormous amounts of garbage that inhabit our oceans, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic and all the waste it has left behind. As a team, we believe that every day we must do more to stop polluting and be able to counteract the damage already caused. As designers, we have a great responsibility to make our planet better and to design to help it, not destroy it.
