Recent Trends of IoT Enabled Wearable Sensors: An Extensive Application of Cattle Health Monitoring
摘要
This abstract highlights the significant impact of IoT-integrated wearable sensors on cattle management in agriculture. In the realm of cattle husbandry, agriculture faces multifaceted challenges, ranging from livestock health and productivity optimization to operational efficiency. IoT-enabled wearable sensors have emerged as a potent solution to address these challenges effectively. These wearable sensors continuously monitor various physiological and behavioral aspects of cattle, providing real-time data to farmers and veterinarians. This study delves into cutting-edge IoT-enabled wearable sensors, emphasizing their capabilities in tracking vital metrics like heart rate, body temperature, rumination patterns, activity levels, and precise location. The seamless integration of this data into cloud-based platforms enables instantaneous analysis and predictive modeling, thereby offering invaluable insights into cattle well-being and performance. The article underscores recent advancements in sensor technology, characterized by compact design, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. These innovations have significantly accelerated the adoption of IoT-enabled wearable sensors in cattle management. The incorporation of Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWANs) and alternative wireless communication protocols has further expanded the coverage and scalability of these surveillance systems, particularly across extensive agricultural terrains. The widespread integration of IoT-embedded wearable sensors in cattle monitoring has yielded substantial benefits, encompassing early health issue detection, reduced labor costs, optimization of breeding and feeding strategies, and improved overall herd management. These advancements not only benefit cattle producers but also underscore the importance of sustainable and ethical agricultural practices. The abstract addresses potential challenges and future prospects for IoT-enabled wearable sensors in cattle monitoring.
