Wat is de WasteShark?
The WasteShark is an autonomous water drone that travels over the water's surface and scoops up floating waste, plastic, and biomass – a kind of robotic vacuum cleaner for open water. Unmanned, emission-free, and quiet.
We are using it as a living example of how robotics contributes to a cleaner and healthier living environment.
- Skim floating waste and plastic from the water.
- Operates autonomously or remotely.
- Collects data on water quality along the way.
- Emission-free, quiet and safe among the swimmers.
Swimming together against cancer
During Swim for Cancer, participants take to the water to raise money for the fight against cancer. B'Robotics is supporting the event with technology that keeps the course clean and safe – so everyone can swim for a good cause without a care.
