Mud-crab aquaculture / CrabionicsBiology × Engineering × Software

Built around the crab. Connected by design.

Modular habitats, recirculating water, sensing and local equipment—being developed together with AquaOS.

01 / The biology

Individual habitats for daily care.

One crab, one compartment. Teams can feed, check and handle each crab while reducing direct contact between animals. The design follows the crab’s size and production stage.

Individual care & observation Explore the habitat ↗
02 / The water

Recirculate and treat the water.

Water from every habitat drains to collection tanks, passes through filtration, skimming and UV, and returns treated water. Treatment performance must be checked. Treatment is sized to each site and its stock.

Circulation & treatment Follow the water system ↗
03 / The observation

Measure water conditions.

CrabSense is being developed to link each reading to the unit and stock it describes. Sensors need calibration and upkeep, so they work alongside manual checks.

04 / The response

Link operators with equipment.

CrabPod is being developed to connect local equipment with operator workflows. Command acknowledgement and independent state feedback are validation goals; completed integration is not implied.

05 / The intelligence

Connect records. Support decisions.

AquaOS brings together Crabee for pond management and CrabDesk for RAS and crab-box operations, with shared Moltie assistance. These are functional software prototypes. Predictive capabilities and physical sensor-to-control integration require further development and validation.

Who we work with

From pond to buyer

The same habitats, water and records serve everyone in the chain, from the first stocking to the crab a buyer receives.

Research & development

What we’reworking on

Funded research and biological trials sit behind every part of the system. Here is where each one stands.

IHMS

Monitoring and control research

Funded through BIRAC, building the sensing and control behind CrabSense and CrabPod.

Trials

Biological trials

Testing habitats, feeding and daily care on the crab itself, alongside the engineering.

Under way

Box validation facility

A controlled-finishing facility to prove the whole system at production scale.

CrabDesk + Moltie

Run RAS grow-out from one screen, and explore Moltie responses to questions about available farm records. The demonstration uses sample records and shows supporting sources.

  • Intake, batches and habitats
  • Sampling and water tests
  • Answers with their sources
CrabDesk product film: actual Moltie stock-count answer and its source links, using demo records.

Real CrabDesk screens with demo records. Crabee is the separate pond-management prototype. Hardware integration needs separate validation.
