Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for underwater feed movement detection. In one aspect, the method may include the actions of obtaining images captured at different time points, where the images are captured by a camera and indicate feed that has been dispersed by a feeder for aquatic livestock inside an enclosure; determining, for each image, respective locations of the feed indicated by the image; determining, from the respective locations of the feed, a respective movement of the feed over the different time points; determining, based on the respective feed movement of the feed over the different time points, water current movement within the enclosure for the aquatic livestock; and outputting an indication of the water current movement.
