Flock license plate cameras tend to use rapid pulses (10hz: 20ms on, 80ms off) of 850nm IR light as part of the nighttime capture process. The strobe/capture process appears to be triggered by motion; ...

This project demonstrates the interfacing of an Infrared (IR) sensor with the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi to detect obstacles in real-time. It utilizes digital signal processing to monitor the environment and ...

Jan. 20 (UPI) --Researchers in Austria detailed the unusual case of the first cow to be documented using tools -- specifically, sticks and brushes she uses to scratch herself. The team from the ...

For decades, the default assumption has been that cows don’t have the kind of minds that support tool use. A famous Far Side cartoon, Cow Tools, made that idea into a joke: a cow stands beside strange ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Veronika scratches her back while resting. “The findings highlight how assumptions about livestock intelligence may reflect gaps ...

A deck brush can be a good tool for the right task. Just ask Veronika, the Brown Swiss cow. Veronika uses both ends of a deck brush to scratch various parts of her body, researchers report January 19 ...

Far Side fans might recall a classic 1982 cartoon called “Cow Tools,” featuring a cow standing next to a jumble of strange objects—the joke being that cows don’t use tools. That’s why a pet Swiss ...

How does a cow scratch an itch on its back? An Austrian cow named Veronika has a solution that could change how we view livestock. For the past decade, Veronika has been observed by her owner ...

Abstract: This paper describes the use of multiple Infrared sensors to reconstruct a shape by detecting any changes in sensor displacement when there is an obstacle placed in front of the sensor.
