An End-to-End Augmented Reality Solution to Support Aquaculture Farmers with Data Collection, Storage, and Analysis
Mingze Xi, Matt Adcock, John McCulloch · 2019
Augmented reality (AR) is being rapidly adopted by industries, such as logistics, manufacturing and military. However, one of the extremely under-explored yet significant areas is the primary production industry, and as a major source of food and nutrition, seafood production has always been a priority for many countries. Aquaculture farming is a highly dynamic, unpredictable and labour-intensive process. In this paper, we discuss the challenges in aquaculture farm operation based on our field studies with leading Australian fisheries. We also propose an ”AR + Cloud” system design to tackle the delayed in-situ water quality data collection and query, as well as aquaculture pond stress monitoring and analysis.
