Iot based physical condition screening system for animals

Abstract

Animal husbandry and its health monitoring is one of the prime facts for the socio-economic development of a nation. This necessitates monitoring the wellbeing of the animals and thereby increasing the food supply of the country. Advancement in wearable biosensors and wireless communication technologies help in ubiquitous E-health monitoring of animals. The proposed system is build up of recent technologies to screen the physical condition of the animals continuously from anywhere and at anytime. The vital parameters like body temperature, heart rate and position tracking are acquired using respective sensors. The collected data are transmitted wirelessly over internet and are stored in a database using IoT technology. The system also alerts the farmers/care takers at the critical conditions. The records that reflect the physical condition of animals collected in the database helps veterinary doctors to provide effective treatment.
