Start year 2010 End year 2011 Funding (€) € 282,815 Website https://www.fhf.no/prosjekter/prosjektbasen/900494/ Summary The technology behind this project consists of an automatic transillumination machine that calculates the content of liver and roe in each crab. On the basis of the measurements, the X-ray machine can define whether the crab is of good enough quality to cook whole, at the same time as a report is prepared for the fisherman on the quality of the current catch. During the working day, the fisherman will have access to the report through a web portal, so that the fisherman is prepared for the quality of the crab in the area he caught.
Goal: to increase the proportion of whole crabs that are landed, and thereby increase value creation in the crab industry.
Sub-goals
a) To create a system that contributes to preparing quality reports / giving structured and objective feedback to the fishermen throughout the season. Implement this in the daily production at HitraMat AS.
b) To develop a pricing system that rewards fishermen for good quality in consultation with sales teams and fishermen.
c) To collect and systematize historical data on the quality measurement, to ensure that this becomes an important tool in the future. Both in relation to decisions about the start of the season, priority in certain areas, possible catch of other species and the like.
