Hendra founded Lobstech as a result of the crackdown on the many fishermen who lost their employment due to fish farming in Situbondo, East Java, as well as realizing the potential of Indonesian lobster farms that have not been utilized and face a lot of challenges. Hendra and colleagues were able to construct a sensor box based on the Internet of Things (IoT) to control air quality after two years of research. I collapsed and pounded on Hendra’s computer door. You can also communicate via phone. Lobster production can be increased by 50% with Lobstech’s IoT-based technology. The lobster’s growing time can be decreased in half, to three months for a single harvest. Weight growth also occurs since, with this approach, 100 grams can be gained in one month instead of 8-10 months.

Initially, just a few fishermen wanted to work with Hendra. The fishermen flocked to enroll and contribute after learning about the initiative and the sensor system designed to increase lobster development. Hendra is currently collaborating with a German business to build more accurate sensors. Lobstech hopes that its technology will be used by fishermen and lobster breeders all around Indonesia. Because, in the future, the technology system will be upgraded and can be applied to all of Indonesia’s maritime water.
