3. OPERATION
3.1 THE PRINCIPLE FUNCTIONS OF THE BIOSCANNER CHANNELS
The V-channels of the Bioscanner are specially formed to separate the fish as they glide through.
The two main functions are the V-form and the curve form. As the fish come out of the basin they
are close together, and have to be separated to be counted accurately. The V-form ensures that
the fish cannot turn around, and also that they are not crowded together.
The curved form accelerates the fish down the channel. If two fish are close together in the
beginning the one that is little bit ahead will accelerate faster and this causes a separation of the
fish. See figure 2.
