R+D Project Manager

14 November, 2024

Company Description.

AQUACORP is an Environmental Impact Deep Tech startup that is developing an early warning platform to remotely monitor water pollution levels in real time. It combines artificial intelligence, IoT and spectroscopy. It uses external images of the water, without contact with it, to estimate its physicochemical parameters (parameters such as: Color, Turbidity, Suspended Solids, Conductivity, REDOX, COD/COD, BOD/BOD, Dissolved Oxygen and/or pH). It is a disruptive technology based on an intelligent multispectral equipment that is installed at the monitoring points; equipment equipped with computer vision models that avoids contact with water (required by traditional methods of sensors or laboratory samples).
