Real-time health monitoring and wearable devices in animal healthcare

Wearable sensors in animal healthcare technology are gaining recognition in monitoring the health of companion animals and livestock. Moreover, their advent has enabled veterinary researchers to monitor animal behavior and health quantitatively. 

How are wearable sensors changing animal healthcare monitoring?

With the availability of wearable devices and smart health monitoring, owners can track almost every aspect of their pet’s health. Combining AI and blockchain-enabled IoT technology has enabled veterinarians and owners to care for their animals better. These smart devices can learn about pets’ specifics, monitor their long-term health and behaviors, and detect changes. This data helps identify the impact of nutrition and exercise.

The major players in this domain are startups and small to medium-sized companies. Datamars, a pet & livestock data management company, recently acquired Kippy. Kippy is a GPS, activity, and health monitoring solution for pets.  

PETMEDICS has developed a health monitor device designed for pets or livestock. It features a health sensor that captures vital information, a display for alert indications, and an evaluating module that compares the captured health data to predefined temperature thresholds. The module can then generate color-coded alerts for hypothermic, afebrile, and febrile conditions. 

The system is adaptable for various pet types, offering configurable displays for historical health data and ensuring prompt identification of potential health issues through its non-contact thermometer. This innovative solution empowers pet owners with real-time, personalized insights into their animals’ well-being, enhancing early detection and care.
