New Innovasea hire puts focus on enhancing biomass camera in Chile
Fish farming technology supplier Innovasea has appointed Daniel Uribe-Aravena as its new technical representative for Chile.
Uribe brings over a decade of experience in the aquaculture industry, most recently serving as head of AI technologies at AKVA group Chile. Prior to that, he held key positions as a software consultant for AKVA group and ScaleAQ, after having held field production roles for Mowi Chile, among others.
“Daniel’s industry experience, customer-centric approach, and problem-solving skills make him another valuable addition to our growing team,” said Jorge Bravo, managing director of Innovasea in Chile. “His efforts will help strengthen our solutions and ensure we continue to meet the evolving needs of the salmon farming industry in Chile.”
In his new role, Uribe will lead AI initiatives for Innovasea’s BiomassPro solution, focusing specifically on enhancing and refining its capabilities for the Chilean salmon farming market in collaboration with customers and partners.
Mission of innovation
“I am very excited to join Innovasea and support its forward-thinking mission of innovation,” said Uribe. “This new challenge motivates me because it combines what I am most passionate about: technology, applied sciences, and the opportunity for continuous learning in a constantly evolving field. I look forward to contributing and growing alongside a great team that shares a passion for driving the development of the industry.”
BiomassPro is US-based Innovasea's AI-powered biomass solution, which the company says provides accurate, real-time estimates of fish size and weight. Using a lightweight AI camera, a single operator can deploy it and begin collecting data within minutes. This information is then sent to the BiomassPro dashboard, a module within Innovasea’s Realfish Pro precision aquaculture platform. From there, producers can track trends, proactively identify and resolve issues, and optimise their operations through a data-driven approach.
Currently, BiomassPro supports seven species, with each module designed to accurately reflect the unique biological characteristics of each one.
