Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for automated underwater camera system control for aquaculture systems. An underwater camera system includes (i) a line on which the underwater camera system is mounted, the line detachably affixed to a feeder that provides feed for aquatic livestock, (ii) a sensor manager, (iii) one or more sensors that are managed by the sensor manager, (iv) a line navigation controller, and (v) a first actuator for controlling a distance between the feeder and the underwater camera system. The one or more sensors obtain sensor data and the line navigation controller of the underwater camera system determines a distance to position the underwater camera system beneath the feeder to obtain additional sensor data. The line navigation controller transmits a first message to the first actuator to position the underwater camera system at the determined distance beneath the feeder.
