The Idea Behind wal and al

The name wal and al is a promise. Wal stands for Water, Air, and Land — the core systems that make life possible. Al stands for All — all communities, all ecosystems, and all future generations.

wal and al represents a simple idea: environmental systems are complex, but the technology used to understand them shouldn’t be. Our name reflects an approach—integrated sensing and cloud intelligence working together to generate reliable environmental insight.

Water: In pursuit of a dream to ensure safe and clean water

We design IoT-enabled water solutions that continuously monitor quality and availability — from elevated tanks and pipelines to community taps. Chlorine dosing and safety thresholds are managed with clear, actionable alerts.

  • Real-time monitoring of pH, turbidity, TDS, and chlorine.
  • Smart dosing logic to reduce risk of contamination.

Air: Industrial Emission Intelligence

We build systems that help industries and regulatory bodies measure and evaluate emissions with precision. Our solutions capture pollutant levels, gas signatures, and atmospheric changes across industrial sites—turning complex environmental behaviour into clear, operational insight.

  • Real-time assessment of emissions, pollutants, and carbon footprints.
  • Boundary and corridor monitoring for compliance and safety.
  • Cloud-based analytics, alerts, and long-term trend reporting.

Ocean: Marine Environmental Intelligence

Coastal and ocean environments are dynamic, sensitive, and difficult to observe consistently. Our systems provide reliable environmental intelligence across marine zones, helping teams understand changing conditions, track critical indicators, and make informed decisions for conservation, safety, and planning.

  • Monitoring of key ocean and coastal parameters.
  • Detection of environmental shifts and emerging risks.
  • Cloud-based insights for research, operations, and governance.

What We Build

We design platforms that capture, analyse, and operationalise environmental data through a blend of autonomous systems, advanced sensing, and scalable cloud infrastructure.

Cloud-Native Sustainability Platforms

We architect secure, scalable backends that ingest streams of sensor data, process events in real time, and expose clean APIs and dashboards tailored to your teams.

From AWS and Azure to open standards, we design for resilience, observability, and long-term maintainability.

Robotics & Edge Intelligence

We develop autonomous and semi-autonomous systems that collect environmental and operational data where traditional infrastructure cannot reach.

Our edge platforms are engineered to operate reliably under changing conditions, delivering real-time intelligence even in remote or constrained environments.

Systems We Build

wal and al develops applied systems that combine robotics, ROS / ROS 2, and cloud platforms. Our work translates environmental and operational signals into reliable, decision-ready intelligence for teams on the ground.

Aqua Insight – Drinking Water Intelligence

A monitoring and insight layer for drinking water networks, focused on overhead tanks and local distribution in rural and urban settings. Aqua Insight provides continuous visibility into water quality and availability.

  • Tracking of key parameters such as chlorine, pH, turbidity, TDS, and level.
  • Alerting when conditions drift toward risk or non-compliance zones.
  • Dashboards and reports that support operations, maintenance, and planning.

Industrial Emission Monitoring Layer

A data and analytics layer for understanding emissions around industrial sites and corridors. The system focuses on measuring pollutants and trends that matter for compliance, risk, and long-term environmental stewardship.

  • Measurement of critical gases, particulates, and carbon-related indicators.
  • Structured insights for boundary, corridor, and zone-based assessment.
  • Cloud-native reporting and APIs for regulators, operators, and auditors.

Marine Environmental Observation Systems

Systems designed to capture environmental signals in coastal and near-shore waters. These solutions help teams understand changing marine conditions and support monitoring, planning, and research.

  • Acquisition of key physical and chemical indicators in marine environments.
  • Detection of shifts linked to pollution, stress, or resilience.
  • Data products ready for analysis, mapping, and scientific workflows.

ROS / ROS 2 Fleet & Cloud Integration

An integration layer that connects ROS and ROS 2-based systems with modern cloud infrastructure. The goal is to make fleets observable, manageable, and easier to evolve over time.

  • Telemetry, logging, and health monitoring for distributed robotic systems.
  • Bridges between ROS topics and cloud services for storage, analytics, and control.
  • Foundations for remote operations, updates, and digital-twin style analysis.

How We Work

Every engagement is structured to respect local knowledge, build on what already works, and leave teams stronger than before.

01

Discover

We map your current systems, constraints, and ambitions — from field realities to existing data and infrastructure.

02

Co-design

Together, we identify high-leverage interventions and design a solution that fits your teams, not just the technology.

03

Build & Integrate

We prototype, test, and integrate hardware and software — from sensors and robots to cloud platforms and dashboards.

04

Monitor & Evolve

Once deployed, we help track performance, refine algorithms, and grow the system as your needs and context change.

About the Founder

Krishnapriyan M S

I’m Krishnapriyan M S, and my work is shaped by a conviction I’ve carried through every journey: a society’s health can be measured by the health of the environment around it.

Whether it’s tracking pollution near industries, monitoring coastal waters with autonomous vessels, or ensuring safe drinking water in remote communities, my mission is to bring visibility to the places where environmental stress turns into human hardship.

This initiative is built for one purpose — to turn observation into action, and action into impact.

“Technology should serve both people and planet — not one at the cost of the other.”

Why wal and al?

Choosing a partner for climate and resource projects means trusting them with both your community and your data. We take that responsibility seriously.

Full-Stack Capability

From field sensors and robotics all the way to cloud dashboards and APIs, we design the full stack as one coherent system.

Designed for Reality

Our solutions are built for uneven power, patchy connectivity, and harsh environments — not just controlled lab conditions.

Impact You Can Measure

We focus on metrics that actually matter — fewer outages, safer water, more reliable data — instead of vanity dashboards.

Open and Collaborative

We favor open standards, clear documentation, and co-design with local teams so that solutions can evolve without lock-in.

Questions You Might Have

Working with a sustainability-focused engineering studio is different from buying a product off the shelf. Here are a few common questions.

No. Water, air, and land are deeply connected, and so is our work. Many engagements start with one resource — such as drinking water safety — and then expand to energy, air quality, or land-use insights over time.

We are comfortable joining early, when you only have a problem statement, or later, when you need help making an existing pilot robust. The earlier we talk, the easier it is to avoid dead-ends and design for long-term use.

Yes. We often work alongside internal IT, operations, or research teams, as well as local implementation partners. Our role is to provide the technical backbone and design practices that help everyone move faster, together.

We aim to leave you with systems that are maintainable by your teams or local partners. Where helpful, we can define long-term support or evolution engagements aligned to clear outcomes, not just tickets.
