Farmers Support
Japan
Farmers Support is a Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) based predictive delivery systems for cattle farms. It uses an IoT and AI-enabled camera system that collects and analyzes the image of a cow and notifies the owner if it detects any delivery signs. The collected data can be accessed via mobile phones, computers, and tablets. The solution has 2 main components 1) Delivery sign detection system: When the AI detects the exposure of the amniotic sac, the violent raising of the tail, or the exposure of the calf's hooves, it notifies the user along with an image and 2) Estrus Detection System: When the AI detects riding behavior , it notifies users with a picture. It is the first completely non-contact estrus detection system in Japan (according to Waseda University, Japan research).
