AI Fish Sorting and Grading System for Aquaculture
AI sorting machines that image juvenile fish and classify them by sex and other traits in real time, at around 10,000 fish an hour. WeyBee's computer vision and software engineers work on the product.
AIIn fish farming, separating fish by sex and removing unviable fish early improves growth efficiency and yield, but manual sorting is slow and stressful for the fish. This product images juvenile fish non-invasively as they pass through the machine, and neural networks trained on millions of labelled images and videos sort them in real time.
- Classify each fish accurately at production speed, around 10,000 fish an hour.
- Keep accuracy consistent across a full working day and changing conditions.
- Detect more traits over time, such as deformities and early maturation.
- Update software on machines in the field without disrupting operations.
WeyBee provides computer vision and software engineers who work as part of the client's R&D and product teams. They work on the imaging and classification software, the models' integration into the sorting machines, and the tools that support new traits and over-the-air updates. The client's scientists lead the research; WeyBee's engineers help turn it into production software.
Fish imaged and classified as they pass, around 10,000 an hour.
Fish separated by sex so each group can be raised for its best growth.
Detection of unviable fish and deformities, with more traits in development.
New models and software pushed to machines in the field.
Runs with two operators and minimal training, alongside existing vaccination lines.
Computer vision that sorts
fish in real time
The client's machines image juvenile fish and classify them by sex and other traits as they pass, at around 10,000 fish an hour. WeyBee computer vision and software engineers work inside the client's R&D and product teams.
Deep-learning models classify each fish from images in real time, with no handling or tagging.
Beyond sex, the system detects deformities and other traits that matter to producers.
Improved models and software reach machines in the field without a site visit.
WeyBee engineers contribute to the computer vision and the software that runs it on the machines.
- Fish are sorted automatically at production speed instead of by hand.
- Consistent, near-complete classification accuracy through the working day.
- Farms can harvest each group at its best time and remove unviable fish early.
