The Kroboot is an autonomous boat able to recognize duckweed, to analyze its environment and to destroy the duckweed.
Duckweed is considered a nuisance in most Dutch cities with canals. An excessive amount of duckweed results in no sunlight reaching the animals and plants living under water. The Kroboot originated from a student project of the University of Technology Delft in cooperation with the Delft Water Authority and we are able to solve this problem. The Kroboot is an autonomous boat able to recognize duckweed, to analyze its environment and to destroy the duckweed.
