Process and device for delivering quantity-adjusted feed to an aquaculture system

Abstract

A computer-implemented process for delivering quantity-adjusted feed to fish (6, 7) in an aquaculture system (1) comprises: continuously capturing image data of the aquaculture system, analyzing the breathing rate of the fish in the aquaculture system and the behavior of the fish before and during the feeding based on the captured image data, calculating the quantity of feed to be delivered based on the breathing rate of the fish in the aquaculture system and the behavior of the fish before and during the feeding, and delivering the calculated quantity of feed to the aquaculture system. This process is carried out in a feeding device (10), comprising cameras (12, 13), a feed delivery system (20), and a computer unit (11) designed to receive image data of the aqua-culture system captured by the camera (12, 13) and to control the feed delivery system (20) to deliver quantity-adjusted feed (22) rations.
