AI/IoT ANIMAL MONITORING SYSTEM
Real Time Farrowing Visibility | Thermal Intelligence | Predictive Alerts
An advanced monitoring solution built to reduce stillborn rates,
protect sow health, and maximize farm productivity.
The Customer Problem:
Why Farms Lose Piglets - Even When Doing Everything Right
Modern pig farms operate under intense pressure: maximize litter survival, minimize labor inefficiencies, and prevent costly health incidents. Yet even the most skilled farmers face a persistent, industry-wide challenge:
The critical moments before and during farrowing are invisible.
What farmers struggle with today:
- No way to accurately track the farrowing timeline
(Early labor, active farrowing, pauses between piglets, distress signals) - Stillborn rates remain high because intervention happens too late
- Inconsistent monitoring due to labor shortage and fatigue
- Lack of real-time health visibility across dozens of sows
- No digital system to detect temperature changes or pre-farrowing behavior patterns
Even a 10–15 minute delay in intervention can lead to lost piglets, sow exhaustion, and reduced future productivity.
The industry does not need more labor.
It needs precision visibility at the right place, at the right time.
The Innovation: AI-Powered Monitoring That Sees What Humans Can’t
Introducing a next-generation AI/IoT Pig Monitoring System an intelligent digital layer built directly into farrowing operations.
A fusion of:
AI computer vision
(behavior recognition, birth stage detection)
Thermal imaging
(temperature patterns, distress indicators)
IOT cameras + embedded systems
(continuous monitoring without human fatigue)
Mobile app alerts & reporting
(actionable insights delivered instantly)
This system transforms farrowing management from reactive to predictive.
1. Detect Farrowing Stages with AI + Thermal Imaging
- Restlessness
- Nesting behavior
- Birthing pauses
- Newborn piglet activity
- Contractions vs non-productive pushing
- Temperature rise / fall patterns
- SOW fatigue or distress
2. Reduce Stillborn Rates with Timely Intervention
Instead of checking every few hours, farmers receive:
- Notifications when labor stalls
- Updates if piglets remain unresponsive or underheated
- Immediate alerts when farrowing begins
- Warnings when SOW temperature signals stress or infection
This dramatically increases the number of live born piglets.
3. Optimize Labor Instead of Increasing It
Farm workers no longer guess when to intervene.
AI tells them:
- Which SOW needs attention
- What stage she is in
- How urgent the situation is
- What action is recommended
While one worker could only monitor 3 5 sows effectively, the AI system monitors 50–100 booths simultaneously.
