The Vislift can be equipped with a Fishcounter. This Fishcounter contains a camera module that not only registers the fish, but also identifies them by species through automatic fish recognition. These images can also be seen in the Vislift Control Centre, making fish migration insightful in addition to measurable.

Many fish species have already used the Vislift, from big fish like carp, catfish and pike to red-listed fish like the European eel and exotics like the Stone moroko, thereby creating an automatic red list and exotic species detection.
