Gauging and positioning issues of robotic fish processing

Abstract

A project in the flexible automation of fish processing has been undertaken. Feeding fish into the processing workcell, proper holding of fish, accurate positioning or indexing of fish with respect to the cutter, associated sensing and control requirements, and cutter mechanics are all important issues in this context. This paper addresses some of the considerations that have been taken into account in the development of a laboratory fish processing system.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
