Waste shark drone to clean canals and rivers in Leeds ( www.bbc.co.uk )
A robotic drone is being used to clean up the waterways in Leeds.
The cutting-edge technology has been developed in the Netherlands and is the first of its kind to be used in the UK, according to the Leeds Waterfront group.
The robot swims along waterways and can scoop up to 500kg of waste from the surface through a wide mouth, hence it being named the Waste Shark.
