Field reports & practical guides

Understand feedlot camera system costs: coverage, power, installation, software, storage, and support. Compare the full scope before you buy.

See what cattle monitoring adds to security video: bunk and water activity, useful review tools, and a practical way to assess cameras you already own.

Plan a cattle-camera data export with source files, labels, animal IDs, timestamps, coverage states, versions, and a clear data dictionary.

See actual nighttime cattle footage from Tuskegee and how Livestock Technologies combines RGB, thermal cameras, and local recording.

Learn how USDA's AI Feeder Cattle project uses LiDAR and machine learning—and how it differs from cattle ID, health, and feedlot camera systems.

Design cattle social-behavior studies with time, posture, identity, context, source video, and independent review—not proximity alone.

Compare livestock monitoring systems by coverage, cattle-record fit, validation, outage behavior, data control, support, and a clear pilot plan.

Keep cattle counts and movements current during a camera or internet outage. Use direct checks, a gap log, and a verified restart.

Connect cattle source, vaccination, transport, arrival, pen, pull, treatment, and outcome records so early BRD risk can be reviewed.
