✓ Automated tracking and location of animals
✓ Enhanced safety and risk prevention
✓ Accurate behavioral data for improved herd management
✓ Adapting management to weather and climatic condition
✓ Using data to optimize animal health and well-being
From a technical point of view, the innovation by Alpes-éco Suisse SA relies on a small number of Bluetooth Low Energy Blue PUCK MOV motion sensors, as well as a GPS tracker incorporating Digital Matter technology for collective surveillance. In a herd, it is sufficient to equip a few animals
with Tag Med and a Tracker Life on their collars. Typically, 1 tracker with 3 Tag Meds is the minimum recommendation. The tracker scans the BLE sensors within a 200-meter radius and records their data, which can then be viewed by farmers on a mobile application. This system allows for the cost-effective location and activity monitoring of the herd, thereby reducing the digital and environmental footprint. The Tag Med duo significantly enhances daily herd management, enabling
daily assessment of energy expenditure. Other uses, such as detecting predation or other disturbances, are also possible. The solution goes even further by providing farmers with meteorological information like the Thermal Heat Index (THI), enabling the optimization of natural resources.
