This project helps environmental managers and water quality specialists detect and identify harmful algae species in natural water bodies in real-time. By connecting a low-cost camera (like an ESP32-CAM, smartphone, or webcam), you can feed live video or images into the system, which then identifies different types of algae. This provides immediate insights for monitoring water quality and preventing harmful algal blooms.

Use this if you need a low-cost, real-time system to monitor water bodies for the presence and identification of harmful algae using readily available camera technology.

Not ideal if you require highly precise laboratory-grade microscopic analysis of water samples or if your budget allows for more advanced, dedicated water quality sensor equipment.
