SmartCatch Lands AI Partnership with Google

Bringing intelligence to the edge with Cloud IoT

IoT and Edge Technology

SmartCatch is creating a digital premium in the seafood industry based on artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies. Their first product, DigiCatch, is a ruggedized deep sea data capture device for digitizing commercial fisheries. DigiCatch provides a live video feed from the trawl-net and associated “point of capture” data of the harvest, enabling fishermen to reduce bycatch, fines, fuel usage and waste in the supply chain.
  • SmartCatch has been selected as one of five proof of concept customers for Google’s Edge Cloud and new Tensorflow Processor (Internet of Business)
  • SmartCatch will utilize Google’s Cloud IoT technology for their Seafood Species Identification, Enumeration (counting) and Stock Assessments using machine learning and AI toolsets.
  • Testing Google’s products will be VP of Offshore Development Captain TJ Durnam, the company’s latest addition to their leadership team.
