Smart Winch – precise measurements, easier than ever

Automatic adjustment

At OptoScale, we’re committed to one thing: giving you accurate data you can trust. To achieve this, you need enough high-quality measurements to give you increased control and confidence when making decisions. That’s why you need a smart winch on your team.

Capturing images where the fish are at any given time provides more insight and better data – there’s no doubt about that. With the smart winch, you can effortlessly adjust the bioscope’s position underwater with just a few clicks or send it to predefined positions you know deliver optimal measurements.

We’ve created a robust tool that delivers more precise data, reduces manual work, and gives you greater control over your fish – whether you’re in the office or out at the pen.

What is a smart winch? And why do you need it?

Automatic adjustment

With the smart winch, the bioscope can be easily adjusted in any direction to track the fish. This reduces the need for manual work, increases the number of measured fish, and enhances precision in the data series.

Saved positions

With just a few clicks, you can send the bioscope to predefined positions you know provide optimal measurements. You can also easily move the bioscope to a service position for maintenance or relocation.

Innovative solutions

Future updates will include intelligent and automated positioning of the bioscope, so you don’t have to make adjustments yourself.

Built for tough conditions

Our engineers have spent years developing a tailor-made smart winch because no winches on the market could keep the bioscope at the desired depth. We’ve created a smart winch that is: robust, designed to withstand the harsh conditions at sea. Simple to operate. Easy to steer.

Smartv winch will also replace your current OptoScale-cabinet, so you don’t have to deal with extra equipment at the cage edge.
