Rómulo Pérez
Rómulo Pérez is a young mechatronic engineer and graduate of the Instituto Tecnológico de Santo Domingo (INTEC) who recently made headlines for developing an innovative catamaran prototype called Sargazoom. This vessel is designed to autonomously collect sargassum algae from the open sea before it reaches the shore, thus preventing environmental degradation and supporting tourism. Pérez's project, which integrates advanced technologies such as sensors, artificial intelligence, and solar-powered electric motors, was conceived as part of his final thesis and aims to address a pressing environmental issue affecting coastal regions. He has expressed hopes of gaining support from both government and private sectors to scale his solution, which he believes could also serve as a resource for various industries.
