Aq1 Systems

We are innovators who collaborate to continuously improve the performance and sustainability of pond-based aquaculture through technology. We specialize in sonic and optical solutions, providing feeding control and biomass estimation solutions for shrimp and fish farmers, government agencies, and researchers across 44 countries. For over 30 years we have been committed to developing innovative and robust technology that drives farm productivity and profitability. Our technologies are proven at scale and have become industry standards around the world. The Sonic Feeding System, developed by AQ1, is the world’s first sensor-based feeding system for shrimp aquaculture. This system has become an industry standard, used by farmers to feed more than tonnes of shrimp annually. It is a complete ecosystem of industry-leading technology solutions, consisting of hardware (smart hydrophone, smart feeder, environmental sensors, sonic feeding and aeration controllers) and software (Analytics - a powerful platform offering shrimp feed management with real-time data, AI-driven decisions, and comprehensive insights for optimised efficiency and production). The system constantly monitors shrimp feeding activity, allowing the Sonic Feeding Algorithm to make real-time feeding decisions for the pond. Our solutions focus on feeding the animal, not the pond, ensuring that every bit of feed is utilised efficiently. The AM100, developed by AQ1, is an innovative optical solution for faster, AI-powered underwater measurements, designed to maximise efficiency. This system enables non-invasive, rapid, and accurate measurement and counting of fish. Enhanced with AI, the AM100 delivers precise results swiftly. The system uses a marine-grade stereoscopic camera in an underwater housing, linked to a ruggedized laptop, for footage analysis with AQ1 Analyser software to perform single or multiple point-to-point measurements for direct comparison or modeling mass/surface area.
