A Netherland Company named “Connecterra” has developed an AI system called IDA i-e IDA Intelligent Dairy Farmer’s Assistant
By learning the behavior of cows and farmers, IDA provides insights that help run a more efficient farm.
IDA uses a motion-sensing device attached to a cow’s neck to transmit its movements to a program driven by AI (Artificial Intelligence). The sensor data, when aligned repeatedly with real-world behavior, eventually allows IDA to tell from data alone when a cow is chewing, lying down, walking, drinking or eating.
Those indicators can predict whether a particular cow is ill, has become less productive, or is ready to breed — alerting the farmer to changes in behavior. Farmers can provide feedback to IDA and also get recommendations on how to solve issues.
IDA uses Google’s open-source TensorFlow programming framework which has been used to do everything from helping NASA scientists find planets using the Kepler telescope, to assisting a tribe in the Amazon detect the sounds of illegal deforestation.
