Introduction:
EquiWatch is a sensor-based activity and health monitoring system for equids developed by research station Agroscope and ITIN+HOCH feeding technology. It serves for automatic registration and evaluation of behavioral parameters, allowing to generate profound information on the health state of the animal.
The EquiWatch Reader App allows to upload measurement data generated by the EquiWatchSystem to web-based cloud storage. Measurement data of the herd can be accessed using a smartphone or computer on the road or from home.
Features:
* Live View: displaying the animal’s activities in real time
* Unit Status: allowing to check the current recording and battery status of a EquiWatch unit
* Cloud Upload: enabling storage of measurement data in a web-based data cloud
Measurement data are transferred and stored to a server, enabling the farmer, veterinarian or consultant permanent monitoring of healthy, noticeable and affected animals in the herd.

* The App will only show its full functionality when using it in combination with EquiWatch noseband sensors and pedometers.
