Medium impact

Laser-armed AI submarine robots patrol Norwegian salmon farms, killing sea lice

Industry news•

What happened

Stingray systems have been installed in salmon pens along the Norwegian coast. These AI‑controlled devices operate underwater to protect the fish housed in the pens. The deployment covers farms that together hold more than 112 million salmon. By being present in the pens, the systems aim to keep the fish safe from threats.

Why it matters

For readers, this shows a move toward high‑tech, automated protection in food production, potentially reducing reliance on chemicals. It could affect the price and safety of salmon they buy.
