What it is and how it works
A-HARVESTCAM® uses AI-powered computer vision to detect and count fish through primary processing, estimating individual weight and providing real-time visibility of weight distribution, quality and throughput. It assesses fish condition to grade harvests as superior, ordinary or production, helping operators make faster, more informed decisions and maximise harvest value.
Data is delivered to the A-FISHIQ® portal, enabling teams to monitor performance across lines, pens and sites, while providing ground-truth data to A-BIOMASS® for improved biomass intelligence and future harvest planning. This gives production and commercial teams greater visibility of the raw material moving through the line.

Welfare benefits
- Reduces manual counting and weighing, minimising unnecessary fish handling during harvest.
- Provides real-time feedback to support consistent and appropriate fish delivery.
- Works alongside A-HSU® stunning technology to support appropriate fish delivery to the harvest station.
- Provides greater visibility of harvest performance to support welfare-focused decisions.
Sustainability factors
- Improves harvest accuracy and planning, helping make better use of raw material.
- Reduces manual intervention, supporting more efficient use of labour and resources.
- Minimises physical fish handling, supporting stronger biosecurity and site practices.
- Connects actual harvest data with A-BIOMASS® to improve future biomass planning.
“The camera, with a portal system, gives us real-time understanding of the raw materials and head-on gutted fish that are coming through our line. This camera will help us truly quantify the difference between the stocks and ultimately help us realise the maximum yield that we can.”
Andrew Davie, Partner & Head of Aquaculture at Aquascot Limited

A-BIOMASS®
The Ace Aquatec Biomass camera (A-BIOMASS®) is an advanced underwater camera designed to detect and quantify fish biomass automatically. It uses machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to produce accurate, real-time data on a range of fish species populations and distributions. The A-BIOMASS® is changing the way of managing aquaculture.
