Maternity Warden: A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Dairy Farming
Dairy farming just got a whole lot easier thanks to Ever.Ag’s latest innovation, the Maternity Warden. This cutting-edge technology uses computer vision to monitor cows in maternity pens, detecting calving signs with remarkable accuracy.
A Helping Hand for Dairy Producers
The Maternity Warden is a game-changer for dairy producers, freeing them from the constant need to monitor maternity pens for calving events. This not only saves time and labor but also ensures that cows receive timely assistance when they need it most.
How It Works: The Power of Computer Vision
The Maternity Warden’s computer vision system is trained on a massive database of manually reviewed video footage, allowing it to recognize three key calving indicators:
1. Raised tail after defecation
2. Visible feet or body parts protruding from the vulva
3. Side-lying in birthing position
When all three events are detected within a 20-minute interval, the system sends an alert to the farmer’s phone or computer, ensuring prompt intervention.
