This project involves development of a novel, precision, data-driven solution for dairy farmers that will create a complete step-change towards improved resource use efficiency and net zero emissions. For the first time dairy farmers will be able to calculate and evaluate their efficiency, productivity and environmental impact and then use sophisticated s...

This project supports Biotangents (Penicuik), IceRobotics (Edinburgh) and Cranfield Univeristy in developing an advanced pen-side diagnostic test for brucellosis, a highly contagious bacterial infection that primarily affects livestock and poses an additional and significant threat to humans as a zoonotic disease. While Great Britain is officially brucell...

"Ruminants worldwide are affected by Johne's Disease (JD), or paratuberculosis, a fatal and highly infectious disease. JD severely impacts cattle welfare due to inflammation of their intestines, resulting in a profuse diarrhoea and emaciation. JD causes large economic losses due to decreased milk production estimated at over 4000 kg less milk produced in ...

The project will develop an experimental system which will demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of atomic magnetometer technology for monitoring the health and welfare of livestock. This is a new approach, made possible by recent advances in the sensitivity of atomic magnetometers. The feasibility of this application will involve tests in a real ...

This project is a collaboration between Harper Adams University and three progressive British enterprises: sensor manufacturer IceRobotics, dairy consultancy Kingshay, and dairy company Dairy Crest. It will develop a comprehensive sensor-based engineering solution that enables dairy farmers to improve the health and welfare of their cows through timely an...

The Cloud-enabled Robust Intelligent Sensing Platform (CRISP) will enable rapid development and deployment of condition monitoring and alerting systems using wireless sensors in harsh envionments. The new platform will make full use of the capabilities of cloud-computing for data management and statistical algorithm deployment, with system access via full...
