From the project
MUUU!: Livestock Smart Collar 🐮
Thanks to its modular design, the sensor board can be easily customized or replaced to integrate different sensors depending on the specific livestock monitoring requirements.
For this version, designed for cattle monitoring 🐄📊, the following sensors are integrated on the sensor board:
- Body temperature sensor (MAX30205) Provides high-accuracy body temperature measurements with a typical accuracy of ±0.1 °C (37 °C to 39 °C range), enabling early detection of illness or heat stress.
