Setup software
How can we integrate our livestock management software with yours? Do you integrate with other systems?
Yes, our system is designed to integrate seamlessly with most livestock management software. We offer API access and can work with your IT team to ensure smooth integration.
Is it possible to connect environmental data?
Yes, our platform supports the integration of environmental data to provide a comprehensive analysis of your pigs' conditions.
What is required for implementation?
Implementation requires installing cameras in your pens, setting up the software, and configuring it to your specific needs. Our team provides full support throughout the process.
Yes, an internet connection is necessary for real-time data processing and accessing the dashboard remotely.
How many cameras are needed per pen?
The number of cameras depends on the pen size and layout. Typically, one camera per pen is sufficient, but larger pens may require additional cameras.
Is one camera per pen needed all the time?
Yes, for continuous monitoring, at least one camera per pen is necessary to ensure comprehensive data collection.
What type of camera is needed?
We recommend 4MB high-resolution cameras for optimal performance.
Is your system modular? Can I extend the number of cameras over time?
Yes, our system is modular, allowing for flexibility and scalability. You can start with a few cameras and extend the number over time as your needs grow. This approach ensures you only invest in what you need initially while having the ability to expand seamlessly when required.
Where is the data stored?
All information is securely stored in the cloud, ensuring easy access and data security.
How can I invite new users? How many users can use the platform at the same time? Is there any limitation to the number of users?
You can invite new users via the dashboard. There is no limit to the number of users who can access the platform simultaneously.
How much does the software cost?
The cost of our software varies based on the specific needs and scale of your operation. Please contact our sales team for a customized quote.
Does it work in the dark?
Yes, our system can make use of infrared cameras that can monitor pigs even in low-light or dark conditions.
What type of pigs can be monitored?
Our system can monitor pigs of all types and sizes, from piglets to fully grown adults.
Behavioral Analysis
What is the meaning of the behavioral graphs?
Behavioral graphs illustrate various activities and movements of pigs over time, helping you understand their patterns and well-being.
Is it possible to download behavior data? How? What is the supported file format?
Yes, you can download behavior data from the dashboard in CSV format for further analysis.
How do we know if a behavioral pattern is abnormal?
Our AI system analyzes data and flags any unusual patterns, providing alerts for potential issues that require attention.
Does the system send automatic alerts for abnormal behavioral patterns?
Yes, the system automatically sends alerts if abnormal behavioral patterns are detected, allowing for timely intervention.
Can you track individual pigs?
Currently, our system reports on group-level monitoring and behaviors. The system does detect individual pigs but only for a short duration. We are working on enhancements for individual tracking, including the use of RFID and UHF ear tags.
What is group level behavior monitoring?
Group-level behavior monitoring involves analyzing the collective behaviors of pigs within a pen to identify trends and detect anomalies.
What kind of behaviors can Serket monitor?
Serket monitors group-level behaviors such as feeding, drinking, movement patterns, aggression, and rest, providing actionable insights into herd health and welfare.
How can Serket identify and distinguish the individual animals?
Serket focuses on group-level monitoring but can identify and re-identify individual animals when RFID or UHF tags are used, combining advanced behavior analysis with precise individual tracking when needed.
How can I utilize behavior monitoring if I am a pork producer?
As a pork producer, you can use Serket’s behavior monitoring to detect early signs of health or welfare issues, optimize feed and water management, and improve overall herd productivity.
How can I utilize behavior monitoring if I am working in R&D?
In R&D, Serket’s behavior monitoring can be used to collect precise data for trials, evaluate feed efficiency, or assess the impact of environmental changes on herd behavior.
Software Features
Can the system identify sick or lame individuals?
Not yet. We are currently working on lameness detection and will keep our community up to date.
What type of pigs can be monitored?
Our system can monitor pigs of all types and sizes, from piglets to fully grown adults.
Can the system estimate the weight of pigs?
Yes, our software includes weight estimation features based on visual data from the cameras.
What age classes can the system recognize and monitor?
The system can monitor pigs across different age classes, from weaners to finishers, as long as standard camera installation requirements are met.
Apart from behavior analysis are there any other AI-supported features in your system?
Yes, Serket’s system includes animal counting and health alerts based on behavioral patterns. We are also actively working on weight estimation capabilities to further support herd management.
How can I invite new users? How many users can use the platform at the same time? Is there any limitation to the number of users?
You can invite new users via the dashboard. There is no limit to the number of users who can access the platform simultaneously.
How can I create new rotations?
You can create new rotations through the dashboard by selecting the pens and setting the desired schedule.
