Sized to the farm, not the brochure
Two variants mean a one-acre holding is not asked to buy a platform built for open backwater, and a large farm is not served by an undersized one.
Solar Aquaculture
Aqua-Feedbot
Programmable feed dispensing in two sizes — including a solar variant for small farms.
Overview
Built for the job, not the brochure
Aqua-Feedbot answers the farm that wants automated feeding without the capital of a full survey-class platform. It comes in two variants: a larger vessel for backwater and open fish farms, and a compact version sized for holdings of around an acre. The smaller one carries solar panels that top the batteries up between feed cycles, which suits a duty pattern of short runs separated by long idle periods.
The images on this page are design renderings issued with the Aqua-Feedbot product literature, not photographs of a delivered vessel.

Why It Works
What this platform is good at
Solar top-up between cycles
Feeding is intermittent by nature. The small variant uses the gaps to recharge, which keeps it available without a shore charging routine.
Programmed coverage
The route is set once and traversed on its own, so feed reaches the whole area rather than the edges that are easy to reach.
Sensors where the feed goes
Built-in water-quality monitoring reads the water the fish are actually in, at the point and time the feed is delivered.
