How It Works - Three steps to population & biomass intelligence.

1

Detect

Frame-by-frame fish detection identifies and counts individuals across the camera field of view.

2

Measure

Stereo or monocular size estimation calculates individual body length and weight.

3

Aggregate

Per-pen totals roll up into population estimates, biomass calculations, and growth curves.

Capabilities - What Population & Biomass delivers.

Individual fish counting

Frame-by-frame detection with species classification across camera fields of view.

Biomass estimation

Total weight per pen or tank calculated from individual size estimates and population counts.

Size distribution analysis

Length and weight histograms showing population uniformity and outliers.

Growth rate tracking

Longitudinal growth curves across cohorts with automatic trend detection.

Stocking density monitoring

Real-time fish-per-cubic-meter calculations for welfare compliance.

K-factor estimation

Condition factor calculation from length-weight relationships per species.

Harvest readiness forecasting

Predict when cohorts will reach target weight based on current growth trajectories.

Mortality-adjusted tracking

Population estimates that account for detected mortality events over time.

Use Cases - Population & Biomass in action.

Ocean pen operators

Replace manual sampling dives with continuous camera-based estimates. Track biomass across 10+ pens from one dashboard.

RAS facility managers

Monitor density per tank in real time. Optimize transfer timing based on growth curves.

Breeding programs

High-throughput phenotyping — measure thousands of individuals without handling.

Species Support - Calibrated per species.

Salmon and trout models use dorsal fin morphology for individual re-identification. Tuna models handle high-speed pelagic movement. Tilapia models optimized for high-density RAS conditions. Shrimp models use body curvature rather than fin features.

Camera-based counting is continuous and non-disruptive. Manual sampling typically covers 1–2% of a pen population and requires handling fish. Our models estimate the full population 24/7 with ±5% accuracy — without touching a single fish.

Detection accuracy decreases in highly turbid conditions. For sites with persistent turbidity, we can supplement camera-based counting with sonar data integration for full-pen population estimates.

Continuously. Population and biomass numbers update in real time as the cameras capture new frames. Dashboard views show both live estimates and historical trend lines.

Yes. Our tilapia and RAS-specific models are optimized for high-density environments. Accuracy scales with camera coverage — more cameras per tank improve estimates in dense conditions.
