TraceMyFish D6.3 - Second pilot evaluation & KPI assessment

This deliverable provides an overview of results of experimental work performed in three different pilots aiming to cover the three different seafood value chains within the project.  Each pilot partner (AUA, NTNU, UoI and MATIS), individually, designed experiments relevant to their value chain taking into consideration results of D2.3 and discussion with stakeholders and VIDEOM provided sensors and support. The collected data serves as inputs for further use and analysis, i.e., machine learning model training and deployment. 

Detailed results of the pilots will be presented in scientific publications to ensure the findings can be distributed to stakeholders effectively. The overview provided in the deliverable shows that the evaluated equipment, the VideometerLab and VideometerLite prototypes showed great potential for evaluation of freshness, both of whole fish and fillets, and could be used for detection of fillet flawes or parasites with good accuracy. The applications of these devices within the seafood value chains provide new possibilities for traceability and non-destructive methods for quality control. The devices are built for by-line use by quality control personell, in the fish market or wherever relevant stakeholders desire a way to further monitor or evaluate their samples and with relatively quick imaging time and good range of wavelengths it provides that. For some specific functions the devices could be further developed based on results from the pilots or further add-ons developed to ease imaging of large samples but for most the devices performed well.
