By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Investigators publish new report on Ro botics. According to news reporting out of Giza, Egypt, by NewsRx editors, resea rch stated, "This study focuses on development of a solar-powered Arduino Mega-d riven robotic boat designed for efficient fish feeding in aquaculture. By integr ating IoT technology and a mobile app, the project aims to reduce labor costs an d improve feeding practices while addressing challenges associated with manual f eeding, which previ-ously failed to adequately cover the entire pond area." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Agricultural Engine ering Research Institute, "The research specifically centers on Nile tilapia pro duction. Experimental results show that the robot emulates manual feeding with a n average response time of 1.82 s for feeding initiation and 2.17 s for movement initiation. It efficiently distributes feed across a 4000 m2 area in 9 min, out performing the manual method, which takes 32 min. Fish fed by robotic boat exhib it an 18.71 % weight gain compared to those fed by hand. The robot ic boat farm consumes a total of 11.480 kg of feed to produce 7.6 kg, while the hand-fed farm required 16.185 kg of feed to produce 6.5 kg. This results in feed conversion ratios of 1.51 and 2.49, respectively. The study finds an overall co st reduction of 46.13 % due to decreased labor hours."
