The BioDiMoBot project will deliver a system for autonomous, long-term robotic assessments of aquatic biodiversity and ecology. This project will develop an innovative measurement system to monitor biodiversity and provide insight into the drivers of ecosystem degradation. Additionally, it will assess organismic and environmental stress levels by using novel biohybrid sensors. With the BioDiMoBots' ability to perform autonomous and automated multimodal long-term data collection, the project will create a user-friendly robotic tool that provides detailed insights into the ecological health of aquatic environments. The project will be driven by the needs of potential stakeholders such as researchers, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in water-related industries and policy makers. Field operations will demonstrate the transformative power of the BioDiMoBot systems by monitoring aquatic ecosystems over a long period of time. The collected data will be highly accessible to enable interdisciplinary collaboration between scientists, society and policy makers. We will respond to the need to disseminate the new methodology to a wide audienThe proposed "BioDiMoBot" project aims to enhance Biohybrid sensors focusing on biodiversity measurement. Key goals include tailoring sensors for comprehensive water column investigation, ensuring long-term autonomy, establishing efficient data transfer, and integrating classical aquatic and biohybrid sensors for ecosystem evaluation. The robotic system comprises a "surface unit" with solar cells for energy and communication, a "ground unit" for microbial activity investigation, ropes connecting these elements, and "rope-climbing modules" with additional sensors for sampling. This integrated system offers a precise and adaptable solution for biodiversity monitoring. Emphasis will be placed on advancing the concept of "biohybrid robots" through market analysis, stakeholder engagement, and company founding.
