[0028] In some embodiments, with reference to Figs. 1-3 The observation chamber 2 is detachably arranged in the pool 1, so that the observation chamber 2 can be adjusted to be close to or away from the water flow accelerating device 11.

At the same time, due to the generation of bubbles downstream of the water flow accelerating device 11 under a large water flow velocity, the position of the observation chamber 2 can be moved away from the bubble generation position to more clearly observe the behavior of fish, thereby facilitating the research on fish behavior.
[0029] In some embodiments, with reference to Figs. 1-3, the observation structure is a multimedia collection device arranged on the inner wall or outer wall of the observation side of the fish passage 21, and the observation side is made of transparent material; the multimedia collection device can collect fish behavior state data inside the fish passage 21; the side wall of the fish passage 21 is provided with a first background plate capable of providing a collection background color for fish; or, a first background plate capable of providing a collection background color for fish is detachably arranged on the front side of the side wall of the fish passage 21, and the first background plate is preferably arranged opposite and parallel to the observation side of the fish passage 21; and a first scale capable of indicating the water level of fish in the fish passage 21 is arranged on the first background plate. In this embodiment, the multimedia collection device is a Gopro camera 22 arranged on the outer wall of the observation side of the fish passage 21. In other embodiments, the Gopro camera 22 can be arranged on the inner wall of the observation side of the fish passage 21, or on the inner wall of the observation room 2 outside the fish passage 21, or other positions. In other embodiments, the multimedia collection device can also use other multimedia collection devices with photographing, video recording functions and wide-angle adjustment. In other embodiments, the experimenter can stand on the observation side to observe and count the fish passing efficiency of the fish passage 21 by the naked eye.

In order to realize omnidirectional and full-angle image and video collection inside the fish passage 21, the Gopro camera 22 is movably connected to the outer wall of the fish passage 21 by a mounting structure in this embodiment, and the mounting structure includes a fixing structure 221, a waterproof shell, and a magnetic mounting plate. The fixing structure 221 is matched with the shape of the Gopro camera 22 body, is sleeved on the outside of the Gopro camera 22, and exposes the camera on the surface of the fixing structure 221 for shooting. The fixing structure 221 is arranged on the inner side of the waterproof shell, and the waterproof shell is made of transparent material. The outer side of the fixing structure 221 is in interference fit with the inner cavity of the waterproof shell, so that the fixing structure 221 and the waterproof shell will not relatively displace. The magnetic mounting plate is fixed on one side of the waterproof shell and cooperates with the magnet to fix the waterproof shell on the outer wall of the observation side of the fish passage 21 or the inner wall of the observation room 2.In other embodiments, the waterproof shell can also be fixed on the observation side wall of the fish passage 21 or the inner wall of the observation chamber 2 through the fixing support and the suction cup at the tail end of the fixing support. In other embodiments, a plurality of Gopro cameras 22 arranged in an array along the side wall of the fish passage 21 can also be provided. In this embodiment, the bottom of the fish passage 21 and the surface of the first background plate are both attached with transparent frosted film to reduce reflection interference in the optical imaging process, while highlighting the outline and features of the target fish.
[0030] In some embodiments, referring to Figs. 1-3 The fish behavior research system 100 also includes an analysis device, which is in communication connection with the multimedia acquisition device and the environment detection mechanism 3. The analysis device can receive and analyze fish behavior state data and environmental parameters. The environmental parameters include one or more of temperature, pH value, dissolved oxygen concentration, ammonia nitrogen concentration, and water flow speed. By setting the analysis device, the analysis device is in communication connection with the multimedia acquisition device and the environment detection mechanism 3, existing visual detection algorithms can be used, and in this embodiment, a YOLO series computer vision detection model is used to analyze the obtained image and video data, extract the water layer distribution, swimming speed, and residence time of the fish, and classify and identify them.

This provides a scientific and reasonable solution for the design and operation management of the fish passage 21 in actual water conservancy projects, improves fish protection effect and ecological benefits of water conservancy projects. In this embodiment, the analysis device is specifically a computer installed with analysis software based on the YOLO series computer vision detection model. In this embodiment, the environment detection mechanism 3 is provided with a temperature sensor, a pH sensor, a dissolved oxygen probe, an ammonia nitrogen sensor, and a water flow speed sensor.
[0031] In some embodiments, referring to Figs. 1-3, the width of the observation chamber 2 is less than the width of the pool 1 to form a water passage between at least one side of the observation chamber 2 and the pool 1, the water passage can make the water flow rate inside and outside the fish passage 21 consistent; the water passage is provided with a water passing plate 23 at both ends, and the water passing plate 23 at any end is flush with or protrudes outward from the corresponding end opening of the fish passage 21, and the water passing plate 23 can intercept fish from entering the water passage. By providing the water passing plate 23 at both ends of the fish passage 21, the water flow is allowed to pass through, so that the water flow rate will not increase due to the sudden reduction of the flow cross section when the water flow enters the fish passage 21, and the stability of the water flow rate in the pool can be maintained to improve the reliability of the experimental data. Specifically, the water passing plate 23 is uniformly provided with water passing holes, and the area of the water passing holes is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the fish to avoid the fish passing through the water passing holes. In addition, the density of the water passing holes of the water passing plate 23 should be set to a density that has little effect on the water flow, which needs to be determined according to the actual water flow rate. Fig. 1 , the water passing plate 23 protrudes outward from the fish passage 21, and the water passing plate 23 is arranged obliquely, but the water passing plate 23 located at the inlet opening of the fish passage 21 is inclined from outside to inside, so that the water flow cross section has a gradual reduction buffer process during the water flow into the fish passage 21. The water passing plate 23 located at the outlet opening of the fish passage 21 is inclined from inside to outside, so that the water flow cross section has a gradual increase buffer process during the water flow out of the fish passage 21. The obliquely arranged water passing plate 23 not only has the function of guiding the fish, but also has the function of buffering the water flow rate, avoiding the sudden change of the water flow rate at both ends of the fish passage 21 affecting the behavior of the fish in the fish passage 21. Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 , the fish passage 21 is provided with a water passage on both sides, two water passing plates 23 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inlet opening of the fish passage 21, a horn-shaped channel is formed between the two water passing plates 23, and the small end of the horn-shaped channel is connected with the inlet end of the fish passage 21. Correspondingly, two water passing plates 23 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outlet opening of the fish passage 21, a horn-shaped channel is formed between the two water passing plates 23, and the small end of the horn-shaped channel is connected with the outlet end of the fish passage 21.
[0032] In some embodiments, reference Figs. 1-3The observation chamber 2 further comprises a first mesh plate 24 and a second mesh plate 25, both of which are detachably arranged in the fish passage 21, and one of the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25 is close to the entrance of the fish passage 21, and the other is close to the exit of the fish passage 21. The mesh holes of the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25 only allow water flow to pass through, and do not allow fish to pass through, so as to intercept the fish in the fish passage 21 and limit the activity range of the fish. By arranging the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25, a space for observing the behavior of fish is isolated in the observation chamber 2, which avoids the random behavior of fish caused by free swimming, and makes the photos and videos collected by the Gopro camera 22 more reliable. At the same time, the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25 are used to fix the activity range of the fish, which can simulate the hydraulic characteristics of a single section in the fish passage 21 and refine the study of the response of fish to different designs. In the embodiment, the fish passage 21 further comprises a mesh plate limiting mechanism 251, which limits the position of the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25, avoids the movement of the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25 in the experiment, and interferes with the behavior of the fish, so that the experimental results are more reliable. In the embodiment, the mesh plate limiting mechanism 251 is arranged at the bottom of the fish passage 21, and a plurality of grooves are uniformly arranged on the mesh plate limiting mechanism 251. Any one of the grooves can be clamped with the first mesh plate 24 or the second mesh plate 25 in the thickness direction, so as to fix the position of the first mesh plate 24 or the second mesh plate 25 relative to the fish passage 21. Meanwhile, a clamping structure fixed to the top wall of the fish passage 21 can be arranged on the top of the first mesh plate 24 and the top of the second mesh plate 25, so as to make the first mesh plate 24 and the second mesh plate 25 more fixed.
[0033] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figs. 1-3The observation chamber 2 further comprises a second background plate 26, which is detachably arranged in front of the first background plate according to the field of view of the multimedia acquisition device, so as to provide a collection background color for the fish in the fish passage 21. The second background plate 26 is provided with a second scale capable of indicating the water level of the fish in the fish passage 21. The second background plate 26 is located between the first grid plate 24 and the second grid plate 25. When the wide-angle of the Gopro camera 22 is large, or when the distance between the first grid plate 24 and the second grid plate 25 is small, the first grid plate 24 and the second grid plate 25 will appear in the field of view of the Gopro camera 22. By arranging the second background plate 26, the fish moving in the fish passage 21 can be pushed towards the Gopro camera 22, so as to ensure that the field of view of the Gopro camera 22 only exists the second background plate 26, and avoid other devices from interfering with the imaging of the Gopro camera 22. When the wide-angle of the Gopro camera 22 is small, or when the distance between the first grid plate 24 and the second grid plate 25 is large, the second background plate 26 can be detached to normally obtain the photos and videos under the first background plate. In the embodiment, the first background plate and the second background plate 26 are separately arranged. In some other embodiments, the first background plate and the second background plate 26 can be integrated into one background plate. By arranging the integrated background plate as an adjustable structure, the above-mentioned effect of assisting the imaging of the Gopro camera 22 can also be achieved.

The light supplement lamp 28 is arranged on the side of the top cover 27 facing the fish passage 21, and the light supplement lamp 28 can supplement light in the fish passage 21 according to the detection value of the light intensity detection device. By arranging the top cover 27, the internal structure of the observation chamber 2 can be adjusted when the top cover 27 is opened to adapt to different experimental conditions, and the top of the observation chamber 2 can be closed when the top cover 27 is closed to avoid interference with the behavior of fish during the experiment, so that the collected pictures and videos are more reliable and have repeatability. In the present embodiment, the top cover 27 is preferably hinged to the top wall of the observation chamber 2, and a handle is further arranged on the outside of the top cover 27 to facilitate the opening of the top cover 27 by the experimenter. By arranging the light intensity detection device and the light supplement lamp 28, the inside of the fish passage 21 can be supplemented with light according to the brightness inside the fish passage 21. The light supplement lamp 28 needs to be arranged at a position that avoids interference with the behavior of fish while ensuring that the observation area is adequately and uniformly illuminated, so that the Gopro camera 22 can collect clearer pictures or videos for subsequent analysis of the images or videos.

[0048] ② Camera system and environmental factor collection device arrangement:
[0049] The test Gopro camera 22 is fixed in the fixing structure 221 and faces the target test area. At the same time, adjust the position of the observation chamber 2 in the straight channel and the up-down position of the fixing structure 221 to ensure underwater video shooting while covering the entire pool cross section in the field of view. The Gopro camera 22 needs to be installed stably to ensure that its viewing angle is constant and avoid picture deviation caused by external force or vibration. Check whether the environmental detection mechanism 3 is immersed in water. The Gopro camera 22 and the environmental detection mechanism 3 need to be turned on at the same time.
[0050] ③ Lighting system setting:
[0051] To improve the optical imaging quality during the experiment, the fill-in light 28 needs to be turned on as the light source. The wavelength range of the light source includes visible light and near-infrared light segments to adapt to the imaging needs under different experimental conditions. Adjust the light intensity dynamically with the illuminometer. The light source position needs to avoid interference with fish behavior while ensuring sufficient and uniform illumination in the target area.
[0052] ④ Water flow regulation facilities:
[0053] Adjust the water flow acceleration device 11 to cover the test requirements (such as 0.1-1.0 m / s) and keep it stable. The water flow acceleration device 11 needs to be combined with the opening design of the first grid plate 24 and the second grid plate 25 to achieve precise control of the flow rate.
