This research created an innovative tool called FUSAN (Fish Detection with Ultrasonic Sensors and Automatic Nets) aimed at helping fishermen detect and catch fish efficiently. This tool was developed in response to the problem of declining fishing due to climate change and detrimental human activities. FUSAN uses an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor connected to an Arduino Uno and an ultrasonic sensor to detect the presence of fish below the water surface. When a fish is detected, it is indicated by an illuminated buzzer, and the net switch can be activated to attract the net to the surface. The test method was carried out in a simulated environment utilizing a bathup, where the success of fish detection and automatic net operation was evaluated. The research results show that FUSAN effectively detects fish and helps increase fishing efficiency. This tool can be a sustainable solution for fishermen facing future complex environmental and economic challenges. © 2025 Author(s).
