Abstract
An animal wellness notification system includes an attachment body configured to securely engage with an ear of the animal; an elongated temperature probe secured to the attachment body and configured to extend within the ear of the animal; a housing secured to the attachment body; a computer disposed within the housing and operably associated with the temperature probe; and a notification device in data communication with the computer, the notification device being configured to provide notice if a temperature of the animal goes beyond a determined threshold.
Claims14
An animal wellness notification system, comprising:
- a plurality of health monitoring devices, wherein each health monitoring device of the plurality of health monitoring devices comprises:
- (i) an attachment body configured to securely engage an attachment point on an animal;
- (ii) a rotation device;
- (iii) a temperature monitor positioned through the rotation device and configured to measure a temperature of the animal;
- (iv) a housing secured to the attachment body, wherein the rotation device is configured to rotate about the attachment body and rotate the temperature monitor about the attachment body;
- (v) a first computer disposed within the housing and operably associated with the temperature monitor;
- (vi) a notification device in data communication with the first computer configured to provide notice if the temperature of the animal is not within a selected temperature range, and
- (vii) a wireless communication transmission system;
- and
- a second computer, wherein the second computer receives animal information from each of the plurality of health monitoring devices via wireless communication, and wherein the animal wellness notification system simultaneously monitors multiple animals.
