A system that uses Active Reader Passive Tag Radio Frequency Identification for deterring pets and protecting specific areas of a household.

An animal information management system includes a storage and an information processor. The information processor causes an imaging device to perform tracking imaging of a pig, and accumulates still pictures including the pig in the storage, the still pictures being obtained during the tracking imaging. The information processor brings the imaging device into a zoom-in state having a zooming magnification higher than that during the tracking imaging when a predetermined requirement for the accumulated still pictures is satisfied, obtains the identification information of the pig by causing the imaging device in the zoom-in state to capture an image of the pig, and stores the identification information in the storage, in association with the accumulated still pictures.

A system for the remote care of an item of vegetation used as a potential source of food for an animal, to include at least one of a proximity tag, RFID tag, transponder device, a predetermined machine-readable pattern, and geo-location device associated with the item of vegetation, and an aerial drone. The aerial drone includes a microprocessor, a sensor coupled to the microprocessor and configured to detect the at least one of the proximity tag, RFID tag, transponder device, predetermined machine-readable pattern, and the geo-location device, and a carrier configured to carry a substance comprising at least one of a solid, gas, and liquid. The aerial drone is configured to act in response to instructions issued by the microprocessor.

An abnormality detecting system includes a first identification unit configured to identify a state of an animal that is a monitoring target in each time range, based on time-series data from a motion sensor placed on a predetermined portion of the animal that is a monitoring target; a first calculation unit configured to calculate a transition probability from the state at a predetermined timing of each time range identified by the first identification unit to a next state; and a determining unit configured to determine that an abnormality of the animal that is a monitoring target is detected when a score calculated based on the transition probability to the next state satisfies a predetermined condition.

An animal individual identification member includes a first base brought into contact with a body of an animal, a second base including an identification portion indicating identification information of the animal by a sequence of mutually different adjacent colors, and an adhesive layer which is located between the first base and the second base and bonds the first base and the second base. The first base, the second base, and the adhesive layer have identical resin skeletons.

Smart livestock management method and system based on Internet of things. The smart livestock management system may include a gate. The gate may include a frame forming a moving path of an animal, an external device disposed in the frame and configured to radiate electromagnetic waves toward the moving path and to receive identification information and bio information of the animal from an implant device inserted into the body of the animal passing through the moving path, and a camera configured to obtain image data of the animal passing through the moving path.

A system for notifying occupants of a structure that a pet is proximate to an opening of a structure. The system may include a pet unit wearable on the pet's body and including a transmitter configured to transmit a wireless proximity signal from the pet unit. The system may further include an exit unit positionable at an exit of the structure. The exit unit may include a receiver configured to receive a said wireless proximity signal transmitted by a pet unit, with the receiver being configured to produce an alert signal when a said wireless proximity signal is received. The exit unit may also include an alerting assembly configured to provide a presence alert when the receiver receives a said wireless proximity signal. The alerting assembly may comprise a perceptible alerting mechanism configured to produce a perceptible presence alert which is perceptible to a sense of a human.

A detector for detecting a signal from one or more feeders. A processor is in communication with the can be configured with an artificial intelligence module and a library of pre-recorded action events and for comparing the signal with the library of pre-recorded action events and determining a likely action event. A warring device can be in communication with the processor for providing an output in response to the likely action event. At least one false positive sensor in communication with either the processor or the warning device or both of the processor and the warning device can be used for stopping the output from the warning device upon a predetermined condition.

A carrier assembly for a pet tag and an electronic tracking component includes a front cover, a retainer ring and a rear cover engaged with each other, with the retainer ring between the front cover and the rear cover. The retainer ring is movable, relative to the front cover and the rear cover, between a release position and a retention position, wherein, in the retention position of the retainer ring, the rear cover is retained adjacent the front cover and retainer ring for holding an electronic tracking device in the second recess, wherein, in the release position of the retainer ring, the rear cover is released to enable the rear cover to be separated from the front cover and retainer ring.

Animal data is stored in memory accessible to a server. The server allows users to access the animal data, such as across a communication network. In some embodiments an identifier for an animal is stored with animal information. The identifier can be used to control access to animal records and to quickly locate animal information associated with a particular animal.
