FISH FINDING AND CATCH CONTROL

Since 1948, Furuno has supplied advanced hydroacoustics for fishing and catch control to the world's fishing nations. The development has been enormous, from the first relatively simple echo sounders, to today's highly sophisticated sonars, offering amazing detection capability and 3D presentations that make complex information easily accessible to the user.

Furuno Norway is proud to have contributed significantly to this development, with our unique expertise in hydroacoustics and our good and solid cooperation with the Norwegian fishing fleet.

AQUACULTURE

Aqua Scope is our solution for the aquaculture segment. In additon to the utilization of advanced hydroacoustics, we have for this solution integrated aspects of biology and machine learning to effectively cater to the distinct needs associated with observing farmed salmon.

Aqua Scope features functionalities that ensure effective management of biomass growth and also monitor behavior, offering unique insights into the health and welfare of the fish.

Our approach enables a unique insight into weight distribution and variations in the biomass over time. By better understanding these dynamics, breeders can make more precise decisions that directly affect both production efficiency and fish welfare.
