Remote Livestock Monitoring & Management Systems

Four layers, each designed per project: a device on the animal (a collar or ear tag with GNSS and, where needed, motion sensing), a radio link (LoRa or cellular), a gateway that receives data on site and forwards it to the cloud, and a web or mobile dashboard with configurable alerts. We scope which layers you need — and how they connect to anything you already run — during discovery.

A collar or ear tag on each animal records its GNSS position, and a LoRa or cellular radio reports it back to a gateway or the cloud at an interval set against battery life. Alerts can be designed for events such as an animal leaving a designated area or showing unusual inactivity. The right combination depends on how far your cattle range and what coverage exists on your land.

GPS/GNSS determines a device's position; it doesn't transmit that position anywhere on its own. A second radio — typically LoRa or cellular — carries the location data back to a gateway or the cloud. Which one fits depends on how far your animals roam relative to any gateway infrastructure you can place.

Local logic can be designed to keep logging and alerting on-site during an outage, with data syncing once connectivity is restored — this is a design decision we make with you based on how critical continuous visibility is for your operation.

Battery life is a trade-off against how often a device reports its position — more frequent updates use more energy. We size the battery and tune the reporting interval (and techniques like motion-triggered wake) to your target run time between charges or replacements, rather than promising a fixed number upfront.

Outdoor collar and ear-tag hardware needs periodic battery service (recharge or replacement, depending on the chemistry chosen) and a physical check for wear. We size the maintenance interval to the chemistry and duty cycle during the design phase.

No — it alerts and cues the animal as it approaches a boundary; it doesn't physically restrain it the way a fence does. Whether it reduces your need for physical fencing depends on terrain, animal type, and local requirements, which we assess with you.

Typically: the animals and herd size, the terrain and area to be covered, existing connectivity or gateway infrastructure (if any), your target battery life and reporting frequency, and any equipment you need the system to integrate with. We scope the rest together in discovery.

Discovery and architecture first (your animals, environment, and requirements), then schematic and PCB design, firmware, a working prototype you can test in real conditions, and manufacturing-preparation files once the design is validated.
