  1. Oysters are a vital keystone species in coastal ecosystems, providing significant economic, environmental, and cultural benefits. As the importance of oysters grows, so does the relevance of autonomous systems for their detection and monitoring. However, current monitoring strategies often rely on destructive methods. While manual identification of oysters from video footage is non-destructive, it is time-consuming, requires expert input, and is further complicated by the challenges of the underwater environment. To address these challenges, we propose a novel pipeline using stable diffusion to augment a collected real dataset with photorealistic synthetic data. This method enhances the dataset used to train a YOLOv10-based vision model. The model is then deployed and tested on an edge platform; Aqua2, an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV), achieving a state-of-the-art 0.657 mAP@50 for oyster detection.
