AI-powered autonomous boats for ocean and waterway cleaning
Clearbot develops zero-emission, AI-powered autonomous surface vessels for marine services. Their solar-powered, self-driving boats collect floating plastic waste (up to 500kg daily per new model, 250kg prior), skim oil spills, recover foam, clear algae, and perform other tasks like water hyacinth removal. Deployed for government bodies and corporate clients in Hong Kong, India (e.g., Umiam Lake), Thailand (Bangkok lakes), and Indonesia origins. Boats operate autonomously or via remote dashboard with obstacle avoidance and waste analysis.
