Summary To create an economically robust business environment, the Norwegian fish processing industry should optimize the cost efficiency in production through automation and at the same time focus on utilization of the demand potential which is present in the market for fresh products. The involved research groups will in this project further develop competence and wider technology together with industry to enable this. In the project there will be education of one Ph.D. candidate specialized in engineering design methodology to transform technology development into increased automation. Cost, and quality efficient and ethical handling and slaughtering of wild and farmed fish (Work package 1) are a basis for further processing, and the quality of end products. The work on this area is focused on technology development based on fish physiology and technical physics. Focused tasks are transfer of live fish from sea to process, optimize bleeding and best practice protocol for the total processing line. The focus in work package 2, is to develop systems for fully automated grading and whole pelagic fish and gutted salmon and automated production of fully trimmed salmon fillets. The relevant research fields that will be investigated for purpose of developing these automated systems, are computer based vision and detection, integrated robotic systems and appropriate preparing tools.
