Norway runs 2,000+ underwater AI laser robots delousing 50 million salmon around the clock
cephaloform · x · 2026-11-10
Stingray has deployed 2,000+ underwater AI laser robots in Norway that guard 50+ million salmon and trout 24/7. Sea lice — parasites where as few as 11 can kill a small fish in a pen holding 150,000 — are normally removed by pumping fish out for warm-water/jet treatments, which Norway's fish health report ranks as the top killer of adult farmed salmon. Stingray's robots instead hunt lice one at a time inside the pen using dual cameras and lasers, all day.
