For decades, Minitube has been known for blending innovation with deep industry knowledge to deliver sustainable solutions in artificial reproduction. In a world increasingly driven by artificial intelligence (AI), Minitube stands out for its unique approach of combining innovative technology with human expertise to advance the industry.

Our CASA (computer-assisted semen analysis) system, AndroVision®, is a prime example of this fusion of technology and expertise. For over ten years, the AndroVision® algorithms have delivered consistent, accurate semen analysis, ensuring standardized quality of semen doses with unmatched measurement repeatability and long-term reproducibility.

Minitube’s future-forward vision for AndroVision® brings together experts in spermatology, software development, and machine learning. Our team is dedicated to expanding the capabilities of AndroVision®, using AI not only to automate complex processes but also to enhance its analytical power and support the development of new software modules that address practical challenges in artificial reproduction.

Dr. Kilian Simmet, Head of R&D, explains: “Our approach harnesses AI in development, but we go beyond that by rigorously testing and validating every element before delivery. This guarantees our customers reliable systems that perform flawlessly from day one, eliminating the need for constant updates that can undermine long-term reproducibility and standardization.”

Minitube’s responsible, integrated approach embodies our commitment to blending human expertise with technological advancement to set a new industry standard in animal reproduction. With Minitube, customers gain the best of human and artificial intelligence, charting a sustainable future for reproductive technology.
