30. Cow Monitoring through Sensor Network CSIRO, Australia is testing a range of remote sensors on a property near Rockhampton. Scientists are using mobile sensors on cows to study their behaviour. The sensors are linked by radio to another network monitoring the local field environment. The networks form a group of nodes, each of which measures a variable such as ground moisture, humidity or temperature - or cattle behaviour such as eating and sleeping. Each node interacts with those nearby, creating a network that passes data to a central database. It could provide a farmer with detail to assess the most effective irrigation needs for every field, or when to move stock.
