SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING FARM RELATED EQUIPMENT

摘要

Systems and methods for continuous monitoring of farm-related equipment. Multiple sensors are deployed such that the pressure resulting from each pulsator is monitored. Sensor data is transmitted from the sensors to a data collection and forwarding subsystem. The subsystem then forwards the sensor data to a server. The server analyzes the sensor data and determines if the farm-related equipment is operating within acceptable parameters. Should the equipment be underperforming based on predetermined standards, an alarm is communicated to one or more users. The alarm can be received by way of an email, a text message, or any other known ways of communications.

1. A system for monitoring equipment for use in milking cows, the system comprising:
at least one sensor for sensing characteristics of said equipment and generating sensor data based on said characteristics; a server for receiving sensor data from said at least one sensor and for determining if said sensor data indicates an alarm condition; a data collection and forwarding subsystem for receiving sensor data from said at least one sensor and forwarding said sensor data to said server; and a communication module for sending alerts to users when said sensor data indicates an alarm condition, said communication module being in communication with said server.
