Minnowtech’s Biomass Reader for shrimp, the BRS-2, reports how many shrimp and the average size of the shrimp in your pond throughout your growth cycle.

Shrimp Aren’t Easy to Count

Shrimp thrive in turbid water. Add in an aeration system, and there’s no way for the human eye or a camera to see below the surface.

Minnowtech’s BRS-2 solves that problem with sonar. This is the same technology that dolphins use to locate fish. We’re using our sonar to accurately report shrimp biomass and count.

How the BRS-2 Works

Device Deployment

We provide installation guides and setup instructions. We work with your team to configure BRS-2 for your pond layout, power, connectivity and operating conditions.

Data Collection

BRS-2 sits under the surface of the pond and collects over 10,000 samples per day . The raw acoustic data is sent to Minnowtech through the cloud for processing.

Data Reporting

Count, average size and biomass are reported to you daily, giving you near real-time access to your data. Data can also be accessed through an API* for direct transfer into your systems.
