Photographing the seabed to help you understand what is there

Lobster Robotics provides underwater imagery data that helps offshore energy developers, consultants and researchers to take action

Environmental services

Lobster uses robotics technology to perform baseline surveys, habitat mapping, environmental characterization, and support nature restoration at sea. Lobster Robotics collects data such as seabed imagery systematically and provides analysis for clients in offshore wind, dredging and construction, as well as governments and knowledge institutions. The quality and scalability of our data is what sets us apart.

High-quality images

Razor sharp details at an unprecedented scale providing clients with a ground truth of the seabed surface

Geo-referenced

Our seabed maps are easily to interpret and true to scale to help clients quantify habitats and biodiversity

Full project scope

We arrange customized surveys, data processing and analysis and interface directly with your environmental teams

Portfolio: imaging wild oyster reef in the North Sea

This is a map of the largest wild oyster reef in the North Sea. Together with our partner Wageningen Marine Research we tested our second generation robot here in the spring of 2023. The images were taken by our robot at 1m from the seabed in 2-3m visibility, with little to no current. Needless to say, the test was a success.

What We Offer

We see huge technical barriers for ecologists and other users to systematically investigate the seabed. Lobster lowers this barrier by offers the systematic data and the analysis tools to study and understand nature enhancement efforts and their impact on marine ecosystems.
