Intelligent Electric Fence and Underwater Robot Collaborative Fish Deterrent System

To address the high energy consumption issue of electric fence fish interception systems in reservoirs and other water bodies, this paper proposes an intelligent electric fence and underwater robot collaborative fish deterrent system. The system integrates the fish group detection capabilities of underwater robots with the electric fence’s pulse high-voltage deterrence technology, achieving wide-area monitoring and flexible deterrence of fish groups through networking collaboration between robots and the electric fence. The system can intelligently select the deterrence mode for effective interception based on the proximity and size of the fish groups and automatically switch to a low-power mode when the fish groups move away, thereby saving energy. This research establishes a simulation platform to conduct validation tests in application scenarios. The results indicate that the designed system can effectively improve fish interception efficiency and significantly reduce energy consumption, verifying the feasibility of the system in terms of fish interception effectiveness and energy saving.
