Meet Caden Pohlkamp, 7th grader who built an underwater robot to test ponds

In Texas, a resourceful seventh-grader has crafted an underwater robot to analyze pond water quality. This clever invention measures environmental variables at varying depths across twelve ponds. Results demonstrated that artificial fountains greatly enhance water quality and support aquatic life. This remarkable endeavor secured him a spot as a finalist for national junior innovator honors, with Caden Pohlkamp now seeking to expand his environmental robotics initiatives.
