Robotic Airboats

Platypus develops very low cost robotic airboats that can autonomously create detailed spatiotemporal maps of important water quality parameters such as specific conductivity, dissolved oxygen, temperature and pH.

Extended Monitoring

With a solar powered recharge station, our boats can be deployed in the water bodies 24/7 for months at a time, providing daily water information directly to a website. This technology dramatically changes the costs of collecting longtitudinal data about areas of water.

Services

At a fraction of the cost of manual data collection, Platypus can provide you with accurate water information for scientific, environmental, standards compliance and educational purposes. With our multi-agent platform, we can monitor expansive and diverse areas, which would be time and cost prohibitive using traditional means.
