摘要:
Method and systems for monitoring the growth of animals, comprising: a. bringing together animals in at least one space where they can freely move; b. obtaining a 3D image of an area within the at least one space with at least one 3D camera and/or a multiplicity of 2D cameras; c. supplying 3D information of the space to a signal processing unit; d. with a first predetermined algorithm, recognizing an animal in the 3D image; e. determining the identity of the animal; f. with the signal processing unit, according to a second predetermined algorithm, estimating a growth parameter of the animal recognized in step d.; g. repeating steps d.-f. when the animal appears in the image again; h. with the aid of computer collecting the information obtained in steps d.-g. to obtain insight into the growth of the animal over time.
