AMBULANT has an intention to create a biomimetic robot with an intelligent monitoring system for identifying seabed habitats, as well as fish and their biomass in aquaculture. This would be a transformation and upgrade of traditional aquaculture, as the technologies used until now put distress on the living organisms because of their frightening appearance, loud noise and poor concealment. Biomimetic, in this case, means it will physically appear and move as a fish. These robots have high efficiency, high practicality and low disturbance towards fish stocks. They will support environmental protection of commercially important species and detect endangered and invasive species. In aquaculture it will improve fish welfare and monitoring of risk factors, reduce inefficacy in the farming process, as well as further develop monitoring technology, leading to economic growth.
