Description: Omegga is developing a non-invasive, purely optical, Al-powered method for in-ovo sex detection of chicken embryos at an early stage.
The dual-purpose chicken, a breed reared for both meat and egg production, is not a viable solution because it is not optimized for either meat production or egg laying, making it too costly and resource-intensive.
Hatcheries are looking for a sex detection method of chicken embryos in the egg (in-ovo sexing) that is non-invasive, early, and cost-effective. However, no ideal solution currently exists on the market that satisfies both hatchery and consumer expectations for global adoption.
Omegga is developing a non-invasive, purely optical, machine learning based method for in-ovo sex detection of chicken embryos at an early stage. Our solution enables egg-laying farms to implement a sustainable and economically viable approach that complies with the evolving legal regulations and consumer preferences surrounding male chick culling.
