Thank you Sequana for this great article about #waterinnovation and your mention of Acwa. We're looking forward to our first missions Down Under and possibly doing it with your #waterengineering expertise to back it up! #cleanwater #robotics #waternetwork
💡 Have you heard of French tech company Autonomous Clean Water Appliance (ACWA) Robotics which develops revolutionary inventions designed to solve water supply issues? 🤝 We caught up with ACWA Robotics’ Director of Development and Associate, Jean-Francois Guiderdoni to understand a bit more about the Clean Water Pathfinder, a groundbreaking solution on a mission to save trillions of litres of water and help optimise cities. 🔎 Based on biomimetics, bio-inspired technologies created to solve complex human problems, the Clean Water Pathfinder mimics the caterpillar’s walk to autonomously go through wastewater utility networks and capture leaks and breakages in water pipes from the inside. 🐛 “The Clean Water Pathfinder is like a caterpillar robot in some ways because it's been designed to move with front arms and legs that grip onto the pipe. In the middle, you have actuators that make the robot move. So basically, you have two pieces of two parts of the body, and they move one after the other based on the actuators in the middle. If you compare it from a biomimetic aspect, it's more like a caterpillar,” Guiderdoni said. 🧑💻 Looking at international trends, water innovations and emerging trends are certainly on the arisen as water scarcity continues to grow. Some scalable and breakthrough technologies are built to contribute to a global zero-water waste goal. 👉 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dke-eeki Jean Francois Rossi Jean-Francois Guiderdoni Suhaib Malkawi #sequana #trends #innovation #watersupply
