Sowter
“Scabuter” is the name used for a system (or project) that measures pig weight in a non-contact manner using AR and 3D camera technologies.
Cable Camera
A cable-camera system is a device that moves along overhead wires to travel around the farm and measure pig weight without any physical contact.
Sowter－Neo
Weight estimation of newborns in incubators refers to a technique that measures and estimates an infant’s weight non-invasively, without removing the baby from the incubator.
Sorting System
A camera-based pig sorting system automatically identifies pigs and classifies them by weight using image processing technology.
