FishSense has been on a tear recently. FishSense won the inaugural Transdisciplinary Collaboration Award at the 2024 Jacobs School of Engineering Research Expo. This comes on the heels of other accolades including a CA CARES research award and finalist at the Triton Innovation Challenge.

FishSense is a collaboration between Engineers for Exploration, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Semmens Lab, and REEF citizen scientists. FishSense provides simple yet effect tool for fisheries assessment. FishSense couples a commercial dive camera with an underwater laser and adds a bit of optics and machine learning to automatically determine fish length and biomass. Congrats Chris, Kyle, Avik, and the entire FishSense team!
