ANIMAL HUSBANDRY and Thermal Imaging
When used in animal husbandry, thermal imaging allows conclusions to be drawn about animal health, among other things.
Infrared cameras are also used in livestock farming. Industrial animal breeding uses this measurement method, for example, to detect diseases at an early stage or to obtain general information about the animals' health condition.
Infrared cameras allow the very precise measurement of the body temperature of animals Especially in the field of animal breeding, monitoring the state of health is important The smallest changes in body temperature can be an indication of developing diseases and enable immediate intervention.
ANIMAL WELFARE: THERMAL IMAGING AS PROTECTION AGAINST ACCIDENTS WITH AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY
Every year, many wild animals fall victim to agricultural and harvesting machinery Many farmers already use infrared cameras in combination with drones to protect the animals on the one hand and to prevent damage to the machines or even contamination of the crop on the other
With the help of the large detector formats of InfraTec's thermal imaging systems as well as the thermal sensitivity of up to 20 mK, wildlife accidents can be reliably avoided.
Infrared cameras from InfraTec detect the animals on the ground and transmit the images in real time to the output device. Hence, appropriate relocation measures can be initiated immediately.
