Shrimp counters

Count millions of shrimp. Miss almost none.

Three counters, one AI core: count, size and weigh every transfer with no calibration — from 0.1 gram post-larvae to 10 gram grow-out shrimp.

Why traditional counters miscount shrimp

Most counters on the market were designed for salmonids in clean water. Shrimp ponds are a different world — and it shows in the count.

CapabilitySincere AquaTraditional counters
DetectionAI object detection — identifies each shrimp by eyes and body shapeShadow detection — silhouette only
TrackingFull multi-object tracking — every shrimp followed end-to-endNone — each frame evaluated independently
Overlapping shrimpCounted correctly via distinct eye pairsMerged into a single shadow
Debris & dirty waterUp to 90% fewer false counts from molts, leaves and debrisAny right-sized shadow counts as a shrimp
Water handlingTotal dewatering + controlled internal water flowPartial dewatering, variable flow
CalibrationNever needed — counts by identity, not sizeRe-calibrate as weights drift mid-transfer
Size & weightCount + size distribution + biomass in one passCount only

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How accurate are Sincere Aqua shrimp counters?

All SC-series counters deliver above 95% counting accuracy. In six independently hand-counted 2026 field tests on commercial farms in Ecuador, the average verified accuracy was 97.6%.

Do the counters need calibration?

No. The AI counts each shrimp by identity — its eyes and body shape — not by size, so accuracy is the same from 0.1 g to 10 g with no size presets and no mid-transfer recalibration.

What size shrimp can be counted?

All models count shrimp from 0.1 grams to 10 grams.

Does counting stress the shrimp?

Handling is gentle: across 13.2 million shrimp in six monitored 2026 commercial transfers, average survival was 99.34%.

Do the counters work without internet?

Yes. Counting works fully offline at the pond; data syncs to Sincere Aqua Cloud when connectivity returns.

How long does delivery take?

Every counter is built to order in Denmark — production and delivery take around 8 weeks. Once it arrives, setup takes under five minutes.
