AI Technical Summary
The existing cow face recognition device cannot collect clear images when the cow is walking or eating grass, resulting in low recognition efficiency and prone to recognition errors.
A cow face recognition device was designed, including two fences and a baffle through hole. Electric push rods and plywood are provided on both sides of the baffle through hole. After the cow passes his head through the baffle through hole, the electric push rod pushes the plywood to move relative to it, limiting the movement space of the cow's head and making it moveable within a small range, thereby improving identification efficiency.
By limiting the movement space of the cow's head, the recognition efficiency of the cow's face recognition device is improved and the occurrence of recognition errors is reduced.
