BouMatic RealTime+ Heat Detection with Health Monitoring
The BouMatic RealTime activity, health and rumination monitoring feature is also available for pasture-based dairy farms. It can cover large distances thanks to the (optional) auxiliary radio, which transmits data wirelessly to the main antenna radio, making all the advantages of health monitoring available to pasture-based farms.
1
The BouMatic RealTime tag registers the activity and behavior of the individual animal. Data for the last 24 hours is stored in the tag.
Behavior and activity of the individual animal is registered by the BouMatic Neck tag.

The data from all individual animals is received by the antenna continuously.
The Auxiliary radio is needed when large herds or large distances need to be covered. It transmits data to the main antenna radio wirelessly.
The Controller is the heart of the system. It analyses individual data per animal and sends the results to your PC, smartphone or tablet.

All data is retrieved once the animals come within range of the antenna. If the animal is already in range of an antenna data is transmitted every 15 min.

The ID Controller analyses the data continuously.

The results of the analysis can be read on your smartphone, tablet or PC. The system immediately sends an alert on heat detection and for anomalies in the eating pattern, and deviations in the rumination amount of activity level.
Devan Toop; Vice President of Toop Farms Ltd.

Devan Toop, 6th generation, is pleased with the results he has seen with the BouMatic robots. Since we have been running the new camera on the 3 double box milking robots and 1 single box milking robots, we have noticed that the arm movement has been more fluid. Not just a lot of x, y, z back and forth and the arm is able to track the movement for more nervous cows during attach.”
“But we have been very pleasantly surprised with how well the new camera system has worked with some of the cows that have some failed attaches before. And our failed attaches and manuals have gone down dramatically, I’d say probably about 60 or 70%.

I’d highly recommend the new cameras. And I think, and they really are a wonderful piece of machinery.”
The results for each animal can be seen on your PC, smartphone or tablet. The system automatically reports animals in heat or anomalous behavior of the animal that could indicate possible health problems.
