    About This Project

    If we really want to know more about how much microplastic pollution is in the sea, we need globally accessible and scalable methods to measure microplastics. The EnderScope is a low-cost, open-source and easy to build microscope that can automatically scan filtered seawater samples to detect microplastics. We want to get this tool into the hands of local libraries, environmental groups and maker spaces in Ireland.
