Technology Overview
Precision Feeding and Environmental Sensing Technology for Aquaculture
Feeding in aquaculture is a highly time-consuming task, and overfeeding often leads to additional costs and poor water quality. To address these issues, ITRI has developed a precision feeding decision-making system that provides intelligent feeding control. This system automatically operates the feeding device based on the fishes’ appetite, preventing overfeeding and conserving human resources.
Applications & Benefits
Fish farmers benefit significantly from this technology, with feeding time reduced by up to 50% compared to manual methods. Furthermore, the system reduces feed consumption by nearly 18% compared to traditional timer-based feeding, leading to substantial cost savings.
