Solar-Powered USV Enhances Efficiency in Fish Farming

AGISTAR is advancing sustainable aquaculture with its autonomous Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV) designed for large-scale, eco-friendly fish feeding operations.

This innovative platform combines automated feeding precision, silent air propulsion, solar-powered autonomy, and advanced environmental monitoring to enhance both productivity and sustainability in fish farming.

The USV automatically delivers feed according to pre-programmed schedules or real-time sensor feedback, adjusting quantities based on fish activity and biomass. This precision reduces waste, prevents water pollution, and promotes optimal fish growth. With high-capacity feed storage and autonomous operation, the vessel efficiently services extensive ponds, lakes, and offshore aquaculture sites with minimal human intervention.

Powered by solar energy and featuring GPS-based navigation with obstacle avoidance, the system ensures long-duration, energy-efficient operation. Its air-propeller propulsion provides near-silent movement, minimizing stress on fish and maintaining natural behavioral patterns.

Equipped with integrated cameras, sonar, and water-quality sensors, AGISTAR’s USV also collects valuable environmental and biological data to optimize feeding strategies and resource management.

By combining intelligent automation, renewable energy, and minimal environmental disturbance, AGISTAR’s autonomous USV delivers a scalable, sustainable solution that redefines efficiency and ecological responsibility in modern aquaculture.
