PenguBuddy is an innovative system that brings penguins, keepers, and visitors in a fun and educational experience. The underwater robot motivates penguins to exercise through interactive games with visitors. It also collects acoustic and video data, which keepers can utilize to monitor penguin health and inform research efforts. The app goes beyond simple interaction and offers educational features, personalized gift options, and dedicated donations for penguin conservation efforts.

The Georgia Aquarium, a world-renowned institution with thousands of amazing animals, is the perfect place to pilot PenguBuddy. This innovative system aims to improve penguin well-being by providing enrichment activities and fostering positive interactions.
