A NOTE ON THE FOOTAGE ↗
Development and field-validation trials — not a claim of whole-lake restoration. Real progress, with the context intact.
02 / HOW WE CAN HELP
your lake.
a practical plan.
A municipality, a campus, a lake trust, a CSR programme. Different needs, same starting point: what does your water body actually need?
Deploy a robot.
HARDWARE & ROBOTS AS A SERVICE
Own a SCRUB platform or discuss a managed deployment. Configuration, operation and maintenance matched to your site.
Clear the surface.
CLEANING AS A SERVICE
Plan surface-waste collection with us. Start with a site assessment, agree the scope, and build a cleaning programme around your lake.
Understand the water.
WATER INTELLIGENCE
Go beyond a single sample. Spatial monitoring and water-quality insights help you understand where the problems are — and what changes.
03 / THE SCRUB PLATFORMS
meet the fleet.
Four ways forward.
Four platforms across collection, interception and water intelligence. Clear about what’s tested. Clear about what’s next.

V1FIELD-TESTED
The surface cleaner.
A twin-hull platform with conveyor collection for floating waste and aquatic vegetation. Tested in real lake conditions.
- Conveyor collection
- Dual-mode control
- Solar-assisted platform
V2PROTOTYPE
The passive collector.
Forward motion guides waste into a passive intake. Fewer moving collection parts, with a compact, transportable design.
- Passive waste intake
- Compact architecture
- Transportable design
V3IN DEVELOPMENT
The river interceptor.
A floating-boom concept that guides river and canal debris towards shore-based collection. In development — the next step is validation.
- River & canal applications
- Shore-based collection
- Modular interception
V4FIELD-TESTED ANALYTICS
The water analyst.
A dedicated water-analytics platform, bringing configurable sensing together with spatial mapping and the SCRUB Observatory software.
- Configurable sensing
- Spatial water-quality data
- Monitoring & analysis
04 / FROM DATA TO ACTION
looks clean?
let’s measure.
SCRUB Observatory combines location, sensing and spatial analysis. Blue water makes a good photograph. It isn’t a water-quality report.

Not one sample.
A spatial story.
The Madiwala trial map connects measurements to the robot’s trajectory. Measured points and predicted areas are identified separately — because predictions aren’t measurements.

moving forward.
We’re building towards dependable deployments. Here’s the work behind that ambition, and the next steps we’re opening to partners.
Designed & built
An in-house robotic platform, developed through controlled testing and mechanical iteration.
Kengeri validation
Real-lake field trials in coordination with BBMP. Moving beyond controlled conditions.
Madiwala trials
Recent on-water testing and spatial water-quality analysis. More conditions. More learning.
Patent published
A published patent application for the integrated system. Continuing to refine the technology.
Next up: site-specific pilots, deployment partners and continued product validation.
A FEW FAIR QUESTIONS.
less mystery.
more clarity.
good questions welcome ↗You can start a purchase or managed-deployment conversation. We’ll discuss your site, the right platform, operating requirements and availability before agreeing a scope. Not every platform is at the same development stage.
No. Floating-waste collection is one part of lake management. Sewage inflows, ecology and other sources of pollution need their own interventions. Our trial footage is evidence of testing, not a claim that an entire lake has been restored.
The platform connects configurable sensing with location-tagged readings and spatial analysis. Measured readings and predicted areas are treated separately. The monitoring plan and interpretation depend on your site and the sensors used.
Your request and preferred date are sent to SCRUB for coordination. It’s a meeting request, not an instantly confirmed booking. We’ll follow up to agree a time and understand what you’d like to discuss.
