Must these be so large and gadgety? This seems unlikely given the cost it would take to manufacture a dozen + of these when you can drive a boat around the oil spill and deploy a similar system. It seems that this is a product designer making another shiny, pretty product without any quality thought devoted to a real solution.

(Reposting what I submitted to the Yanko site)

Considering it’s really just a concept, I wish it had gone much, much further (and didn’t look so clumsy; aquatic forms are elegantly sculpted, not geometric).

Of potential interest: I used this exact same scenario as an example for a “kirkyan” device (someone added that concept to Wikipedia but, like “spime”, it was deleted; I’ve archived that page here – http://www.rebang.com/csven/Kirkyan.htm ). However, beyond not having a transreality component, it has another issue (but as I’ve been working on this idea myself, I won’t explain). Thanks for bringing it to my attention though.
