Umitron Cell is a smart feeder that utilises AI and IoT technologies. It is possible to remotely control feeding while watching real-time video of fish swimming in the farm from a smartphone or other device. In addition, AI can judge the appetite of the fish and optimise and control the amount and speed of feeding, thus contributing to the reduction of labour, optimisation of feeding, and the realisation of environmentally friendly aquaculture by preventing uneaten feed from flowing into the sea.
