Full control from the bridge of the wellboat
THE COUNTING TECHNOLOGY
The counter uses VAKI computer vision technology originally developed for counting fry, smolts and juvenile fish. Fish pass over a light source where an imaging line scanning camera is used to grab silhouette image of every single fish. The silhouettes are analysed and used for counting and size estimation.
RECORDING OF IMAGES
The images of the fish are automatically recorded and can be used to validate and check the accuracy of the count. The image file can be given to a customer and / or stored as a permanent record.
The red chart indicates the numbers of fish counted during the entire count and is used to select a time frame for further analyses. The screen displays images of fish passing the camera for each one second interval. Accuracy can be verified by a manual check of the number of fish images to the count shown on the screen.
MACRO APP
Among other features the Macro app provides the user the option to run the counter, view the results and email the count report from a smart phone or tablet.
