The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for improving attachment of animal related means, such as a teatcup (5) onto a teat of an animal to be milked. Especially when a teat (7) is inclined, it may be difficult to find the right position before attachment of the teatcup (5). The apparatus comprises a first and a second illuminating sources (10, 11) by which a first and a second discrete areas (12, 13) are illuminated. An image capturing means (14) and a processing means (not shown) are used for determination and calculation of the correct teatcup position based on information about the teat tip (8) position. A described sequence is followed whereby the success rate of correct teatcup application is enhanced and thereby performance of the whole automated milking system. |
