About

Chico Hermanu is a researcher focused on the intersection of aquaculture technology and the Internet of Things (IoT), with a particular emphasis on sustainable fish farming practices. His work centers on developing automated systems that enhance productivity and efficiency in biofloc-based catfish aquaculture, a key area of modern fisheries management. His most-cited paper, "Prototipe Automatic Feeder dengan Monitoring IoT untuk Perikanan Bioflok Lele" (2021), introduces a prototype automatic feeder integrated with IoT monitoring, designed to optimize feeding schedules and water quality in biofloc systems. This contribution addresses the challenges of labor-intensive manual feeding and real-time data collection, offering a scalable solution for small-scale and industrial fish farmers. While his citation count is modest, with 3 citations for this work, Hermanu’s research is notable for its practical application of Industry 4.0 principles—such as automation and remote monitoring—to traditional aquaculture, bridging the gap between technology and food security. His work reflects a growing trend in precision aquaculture, where IoT-enabled devices reduce human intervention while improving yield and sustainability.
