Smolt Tracker: Automatic and traceable smolt counting

Smolt Tracker: Automatic and traceable smolt counting

A machine vision system that enables the automatic counting of smolts at various stages of the production cycle, providing reliable, auditable, and real-time data through local processing without interrupting operational flow.

Key Indicators

Speed Up to 200 units/min
Coverage ≥ 98% (under controlled flow conditions)
Integration Traceability / Information Systems
Operation Real-time, local processing

Automatic smolt counting during truck loading and transfers at fish farms. Smolt Tracker provides visibility into the process, enabling the detection of deviations, ensuring consistency in counts, and strengthening operational traceability throughout the production cycle.

Hardware

  • Industrial camera mounted on a stainless steel bracket.
  • Image Capture System: Industrial cameras in stainless steel housings, mounted on a stainless steel bracket above the smolt loading trough.
  • Count Reset Button Panel: Control box with two physical buttons that allow you to start or reset the count for each tank or truck.

Key Outputs

  • Cumulative count by truck, tank, and lot.
  • Automatic daily report at the end of the day.
  • Continuous visual feedback for each load.
  • Traceable information for verification against shipping guidelines and regulatory requirements.
Real-time results

Automatic Smolt Counting

The system performs the count under controlled flow conditions, ensuring:

  • Individual counting without overlapping between fish.
  • High precision and process repeatability.
  • Elimination of errors associated with manual counting.
  • Consistency between operational and administrative records.
