KAUST developed fish wearable technology wins CES Innovation Award

Summary

KAUST's Bluefin, a fish wearable technology developed by Professor Muhammad Mustafa Hussain, won the CES Innovation Award. The device measures water temperature, pressure, depth, and pH levels, functioning for a year at a depth of 2km while weighing only 2.4 grams. Bluefin will be available to scuba divers, naval forces, and fisheries for marine life tagging. Why it matters: This award recognizes KAUST's contributions to marine research technology and positions the university as a global leader in applying advanced engineering to ecological monitoring.
