First deliveries of Deep Vision Research Version

First deliveries of Deep Vision Research Version

Aug 20, 2018 |

After more than a decade of development, test cruises and refinement of the Deep Vision technology, the first systems for marine research are being delivered.

Deep Vision trawl camera system has been developed in close cooperation with the Institute of Marine Research (IMR) in Bergen and their Centre for Research-based Innovation in Sustainable fish capture and Processing technology (CRISP). This has resulted in the first two orders of the system to the Institute.

– After many years of technology development and field testing, Deep Vision is well suited to our needs, says Geir Huse, Research Director at IMR.

One system will be used by IMR’s local research vessels, and another by the new «Dr. Fridtjof Nansen» that the Institute operates on behalf of NORAD along the coast of Africa and Asia.

Next year, a third system will be delivered to the new research vessel “Tamgu 23”, commissioned by the National Institute for Fisheries Science (NIFS) in South Korea.

More efficient and sustainable sampling
The Deep Vision camera system attaches to the trawl net and will be used by the Institute to map marine resources. Analysis of stereo images from the trawl will provide information about species, length and location of fish. IMR has integrated support for the images from the system in their acoustic software LSSS, so that images from the trawl show up along the timeline of the haul.

– Deep Vision ensures that the data we use as a basis for our resource estimates are of a higher quality. In addition, we can use these images to verify acoustic signals. The end result may enable us to give more accurate advice regarding quotas. In the long run, this technology has the potential to transform our sampling methods. We will rely less on the physical catch for sampling and only retrieve a selection for biological sampling by closing or opening the trawl. With less catch onboard, our cruises will become more efficient and sustainable, says Huse.

ABOUT

Scantrol Deep Vision supplies innovative solutions for fish sampling - in the sea, onboard your vessel and in your lab. Deep Vision measures species, size and location of fish in the sea by help of a camera system mounted in the trawl. Sampling can be done without bringing the fish onboard your vessel. The FishMeter electronic fish measuring board ensures accurate and efficient sampling in rough environments onboard your vessel and in your lab.
