ARTICLE 70 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE December 2022 • Environmental monitoring – Real-time monitoring tools, including wireless sensors, allow quick visibility into environmental conditions. • Plankton monitoring – Monitor historical trends and current conditions by tracking and analysing plankton data to avoid dangerous algal blooms. • Surveillance system - The underwater cameras are remotely operated up to the net wall, allowing them to search along it with horizontal and/or vertical movements. • Feed saver system – The feed spreader compensate for high current by remotely controlling and creating countercurrent to the ideal feeding point, allowing the feed to be consumed before being simply carried out through the net wall. • Washing system - The system is remotely operated adjacent to the net wall, where the washing process begins, and washes the entire net systematically with horizontal and/or vertical movements. FIRMS INVOLVED Aquabyte, situated in the United States, has created a software platform that uses cutting-edge computer vision technologies. The software platform enables extreme levels of industry optimization, resulting in higher yields and profits for farm owners. Aquabyte's holistic software platform outperforms modern farm monitoring systems. The solution provides simple installation, continuous monitoring, and a variety of applications. AquaManager, Greece, provides a comprehensive, integrated software solution for increasing efficiency in the aquaculture industry. It is a sophisticated fish farming software solution that supports all stages of fish production, from hatchery to harvest. CageEye is a global firm based in Oslo, Norway, intending to optimise seafood production most ethically and sustainably as possible. They have created a one-of-a-kind hydroacoustic system that provides deep analytical data and converts fish behaviour into knowledge and insights. Cermaq, Norway, is a leading global salmon producer, spearheading the change of food system toward healthier, more environmentally friendly food. Cermaq's iFarm (a technical concept developed by BioSort AS) is geared on individual based fish farming. The iFarm sensors use computer vision to detect each individual fish based on the dot pattern. The quantity of fish, fish size, number of sea lice, and various indicators of disease are all recorded in a sensor chamber. As a result, iFarm marks a technological breakthrough in the evolution of cage farming. Innovasea, USA, with a global presence, offers complete end-to-end solutions for fish farming and aquatic species research, including high-quality equipment, experienced consulting services, and cutting-edge platforms and products that produce incomparable data, information, and insights. Skagen Engineering in Norway developed a patented cage-based feeding system with an integrated
