====== Calf Tracking ====== ===== General Concept Ideas ===== ==== Visual System ==== * An AI evaluates a camera image and gives out if the calf is laying or standing * Option 1: trying to fit a skeleton model and evaluate that * Option 2: Train an AI to differentiate just laying and standing -> TinyML + LoRaWAN ("cheap and low power") ==== ToF System ==== * Just use a Time of Flight sensor to measure the distance between the calf and the top of the ceiling ===== Additional Sensors ===== * Low-resolution thermal camera * Measure the temperature of the calf and of the ground * Air temperature and humidity tracking * Straw/Litter tracking (temperature and humidity) * Water tracking
