Project details

Describe your product and your key goals

<aside> <img src="/icons/apple_blue.svg" alt="/icons/apple_blue.svg" width="40px" /> ISDA: Integrated System for Diseases in Aquaculture is a rapid automated monitoring tool and technology for diseases in aquaculture (fish and shrimps) such as WSSV and TILV to help fishermen, particularly in the Southeast Asian region. It is fast, easy to use, and affordable. Our team develops an AI-based mobile application to help fishermen and stakeholders monitor WSSV and TiLV infections in shrimps and tilapia aquaculture in the Southeast Asian region to achieve sustainable fisheries and aquaculture industry. The ISDA mobile app allows users to monitor in real-time the current status of the ponds, provides disease monitoring and surveillance of shrimp and tilapia, computational analysis and statistics of epidemics and losses caused by WSSV and TiLV in ponds, and informs local agencies and authorities about the incidence and receive science-based mitigation recommendations on the fly.

• In six months, Aquagentech aims to develop a reliable, user-friendly mobile application that monitors infection of White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) for shrimps and Tilapia Lake Virus (TiLV) for tilapia. With this technology, we aspire to impact the lives of our early users, such as fishermen, by helping them detect and monitor the health of shrimps and tilapia, prevent outbreaks, reduce losses, and ensure healthier aquatic populations, ultimately promoting sustainable fisheries and aquaculture practices. </aside>
