AN INTELLIGENT APPROACH OF THE FISH FEEDING SYSTEM

Fish breeding is a promising branch of farming, so the creation of tools for automation of this area is quite relevant. Feeding on fish farms is the main component of the successful functioning of such businesses. However, this process requires an in-depth preparation, as each species of fish has a different food culture, as well as various behaviours during nutrition. Moreover, in the method of feeding fish, farmers must take into account the age, size of the fish, and other characteristics. This paper contains information on the creation of a Preference testing by images processing is considered as the most effective tool that can be used to determine the sensory behaviour of an animal, which can record the eating behaviour of fish and determine the degree of their hunger, and, finally, to feed them. Moreover, small fish are shyer, which provokes their malnutrition. A smart feeding system can solve the issue of uniform the distribution of food for all fishes.
