Norway now has more than 2,000 underwater AI laser robots shooting lice off its salmon

they're made by a company called Stingray, and they already guard more than 50 million salmon and trout 24/7

the reason is sea lice, tiny parasites that latch onto salmon and feed on them

as few as 11 can kill a small fish, and one pen can hold 150,000 salmon

the usual fix is pumping the fish out and blasting them with warm water or water jets to knock the lice off

but the handling is so rough that Norway's fish health report ranks it the top cause of death in full-grown farmed salmon

so instead, Stingray puts a robot inside the pen that hunts lice one at a time, all day:

> two cameras watch every salmon that swims past

> AI checks two frames to make sure it's really a louse

> then a green laser fires from up to 2 meters away

> the salmon's scales reflect the beam, so the fish swims off fine and the louse is dead

amazing thread

we should have similar orbital lasers that detect phenotypes near every border

why are scandis the only actual peoples in the world that aren't money-grubbing jews? they actually strive to provide services that are of beneficence to humanity.

I want this for mosquitos in my room

this is computer vision machine learning btw
gayI "AI" wordspinner LLMs tainted the AI brand
>>110306179
im guessing the problem there is, your room doesnt have scales that would safely deflect the missed shots
but i want this too

what happens when they evolve to have laser resistance

>>110306447
oh shit! You should notify them immediately!!!
>>
>>110306038
this looks cool, but the effects on the salmon worries me. wouldn't this make them blind, stress them out or something?
also, I feel like this could be improved by narrowing the passage so that the laser can be shorter

>>110306128
>why are scandis the only actual peoples in the world that aren't money-grubbing jews?
they aren't? do you have any scandi companies in your country? they don't give a flying fuck about the environment in other countries...

They are in huge cages being fed all day, fish use their smell and pressure line way more than their eyes.

I don't there are big enough commercial lasers to vaporize 60kg of biomass in an instant.

I've thought about similar (in some way or another) stuff but for different purposes...
a water cleaner: a systems that uses UV LEDs or lasers to kill bacteria in water, as it moves through a transparent quartz pipe (I think something like this already exists, but it would be nice if it was made cheap)
another, similar to the previous one: a clean vs dirty water separator, for use in home draining/sewage systems: a system that analyzes the cleanliness of water, and sends it through one of two pipes: one that goes to the sewage, another that sends clean water to a pit, container or w/e. the clean water can be later used to irrigate plants in your garden.

Microwave beam trucks have existed for a long time. They will not vaporize your 60kg in an instant, but can definitely vaporize enough to kill you quickly

>>110307268
Also already exists lole and is cheap

Then we get more proof that evolution is real, and beard man in the clouds is fairytale.

Sure but then you have to deal with piles of dead poo lying all over the place giving you who knows what diseases. To be practical, it would need to vaporize all of it. Thankfully, laser tech is improving fast.

this is retarded and i refuse to eat salmon from Scandinavia. i will only eat what i catch and what I know is fresh from the glorious Pacific

I thought the death lasers would be users to kill humans, rather than lice on salmon. I mean, I guess it makes sense that we have to start somewhere small and then scale up.

>>110307828
Dumping enough light into someone to kill them comparably to a bullet isn't easy. Death lasers for man-sized targets hit problems with the atmosphere absorbing energy and becoming opaque to the beam. If you're willing to ignore international agreements it'd be way easier and nearly as effective to build a weapon that instantaneously and permanently blinds anyone with unprotected eyes in line of sight.
