The water tank models (upper) and the prototypes or sub-scale models (lower) of an automated feeding platform (left), a submergible cage (center), a motion-controlled ship with wave energy harvester (right)

Based on the model experiment in Ocean Engineering Basin, we research and develop an automated feeding platform, a large submergible cage, and a motion-controlled ship with wave energy harvester (Wave Harmonizer 7). We validate the method of the water tank model experiment by performing the automated feeding in high waves, the shipping adjustment of silver salmon, and the hybrid ship using the prototypes and sub-scale models.
