The Japan-Bangladesh Robotics and Advanced Technology Research Center (JBRATRC) has secured World Bank funding for a project titled “Development of IoT-based Smart Mariculture Technique for Sustainable Utilization of Blue Economy.” This initiative aims to enhance the country’s economy and fisheries production through the proper utilization of marine resources. Mariculture involves farming marine organisms for various products, including food, pharmaceuticals, and jewelry, in natural or controlled environments. The project focuses on developing an AI and IoT-based automated system to monitor fish health and behavior, ensuring optimal fish production. This technology is expected to improve the lives of coastal residents, boost marine production, create jobs, and enhance the local economy, contributing to a more self-sufficient Blue Economy. The initiative seeks to modernize fish farming methods using advanced technologies like IoT, machine learning, and AI while ensuring environmental sustainability.
