?? Celebrating 10 Years of INDYMO: From Aquatic drones to Global Water Insights ?? As I watch this incredible highlight video of our journey (kudos to Rui Pedroso de Lima for weaving a decade of grit and growth into a 4-minute masterpiece!), I’m reminded of how it all began. Back in 2015, we founded Indymo with a mission to develop better insights in our water systems using the most innovative technologies available. From Delft’s Labs to the World’s Waters Teaming up with Blue21, pioneers in floating urbanization, we deployed our first aquatic drones to investigate how floating infrastructure interacts with aquatic ecosystems. That foundational work—supported by collaborations with Deltares and TAUW Nederland —sparked a revolution. Today, our drones and autonomous vehicles operate globally: mapping water quality in Mali’s critical river systems, safeguarding biodiversity in Myanmar’s Inle Lake, and optimizing industrial tanks from Europe to South America. Innovation Anchored in Partnership None of this would exist without visionary allies. Shoutout to VPdelta and TU Delft, whose expertise in hydraulic engineering and water management helped us refine our tech. And to partners like Water Alliance , ClimateScan_NL, Living Lab Grensmaas and Project Green—thank you for trusting us to tackle challenges like climate-driven ecological shifts and submerged infrastructure inspections. A Team That Dives Deeper To Floris Boogaard (co-founder and urban water guru), our relentless R&D crew, and the resourceful minds of Hogeschool Rotterdam and Hanzehogeschool Groningen who’ve joined our quest: you’ve turned prototypes into tools that empower governments, NGOs, and industries to act on 3D water insights. ??The Next Wave The next decade? We’re scaling AI-driven analytics, expanding by investigating fragile ecosystems, including microplastics into our monitoring set, and ensuring every drone we deploy makes water safer, smarter, and more sustainable. Here’s to rewriting the future of water—one byte, one drop, at a time. ?? Watch the video below to see how we’ve evolved, and join us in shaping a world where water isn’t just monitored—it’s understood. ???? #10YearsOfIndymo #WaterInnovation #FloatingFuture #ClimateAction #AquaticDrones

??Revolutionising Kelp Restoration with Affordable Underwater Drones?? ??Did you know that overgrazing by urchins is decimating kelp forests globally? John Griffiths from Down Deep Drones is tackling this challenge head-on with innovative urchin culling tools designed for readily available underwater drones like the Blue Robotics BR2 and QYSEA. Our mission is to make kelp restoration accessible and affordable so that marine environments benefit. Why it matters: Kelp forests are vital marine ecosystems. They support biodiversity, sequester carbon, and protect coastlines.?????????? Our tools empower individuals, researchers, and organisations to take direct action in kelp restoration efforts. We're pioneering the use of affordable technology for environmental intervention. ??Take a look at our Kickstarter project, and with enough funds we will also be making more harvesting tools. We will appreciate any support, including through you sharing this message. https://lnkd.in/g62q6red #kelprestoration #underwaterdrones #oceanconservation #sustainability #marineresearch #innovation #technology #kickstarter #urchins
