The big issue there seems to be identifying each individual cow. Holsteins generate their own ID code but monotone cows won't be so easy to identify. Common cameras and a PoE should solve the data capture side cost effectively enough, and it's got to be presumed we need some sort of small but stable power delivery. | |

But with the current status of tech I don't see how you can do that at low cost. You probably can find some hacks, but I feel like the only hardware low cost would be to use a node of camera with an openCV server and tags on the cows. But you still have the camera node battery problem... | |
