Additional information

This research paper discusses the results of modelling and experimental mapping of cow movement, and a low-power communication protocol. The findings of the research supported the design of a communications protocol that is exploited by University spin-out Embedded Technology Solutions Ltd to deliver a cattle monitoring solution based on oestrus detection [Malachy Devlin, mdevlin@emebeddedtech.co.uk]. The system is part of a decision support platform that reduces operational costs: according to the National Milk Register, this amounts to circa £10k per annum for a 100 cow farm with a current installed base of 250 farms [Andrew Paine, AndrewP@NMR.co.uk].
