Description
Summary:Farming in Nigeria should grow away from its predominance in subsistence practice into majorly mechanized system of farming which implies moving to another dimension on the implementation processes. Farming has over a long time being subsistence for obvious reasons, the need for efficient health monitoring mechatronics devices in the area of fish farming become therefore necessary for effectiveness and efficiency. This paper presents an overview of the need of novel techniques and technological solutions for the problems confronting traditional fish farming in Nigeria. The paper also analyzed the application of sensors for instantaneous health monitoring of aquaculture system with special reference to catfish. The requirements and the exploits into the visibility of fibre optic sensor application in this regards with consideration to structural intelligence were critically analyzed. Fibre optics is a major building block in the mechatronic infrastructure, its high bandwidth capabilities and low attenuation characteristics justified its consideration in the system for data transmission. Finally, the fundamental viability of FOS in achieving intelligent aquaculture cost effective system was analysed.
