Issue
Insufficient water quality
The quality of the water is insufficient.
Excessive duckweed causes a lot of trouble in old canal cities like Delft. Sunlight is blocked by the duckweed which causes destruction of the flora and fauna under water. This has a negative influence to the living environment of fish and plants in the water.
Solution
Kroboot
The Kroboot is a robot which sails through canals autonomous and filters duckweed from the water. By using the Kroboot less dredging is needed to remove the duckweed.
