There are some new bots called OSP on the drawing board. Using advanced robotics, these guys autonomously work together to contain an oil spill by surrounding it with an inflatable barrier. Once contained, clean-up crews can jump in and suck the oil out.

Designer Ji-hoon Kim, must have come up with this idea after cleaning his house with bunch of Roombas…
