The interesting aspect in the MIT approach is that they approach the problem with a set of relatively small devices. Due to the wavy water, the oil patches become smaller and distributed. With the relatively small MIT robots they can scent out oil patces the same size. Other approaches involve large machines which become ineffective for small patches.
