Abstract
Techniques for autonomous animal movement are described. In some examples, animal tracking and movement software is used to provide input from a physical stimulus to direct movement of the animal coupled to an apparatus along a multi-turn route using physical output of the physical stimulus device based at least in part on a location of the animal with respect to a destination grazing area.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a physical stimulus device to generate a physical output;
- memory to store animal tracking and movement software;
- a processor to execute the animal tracking and movement software to:
- when coupled to an animal trained to according to input from the physical stimulus, direct movement of the animal coupled to the apparatus along a multi-turn route using physical output of the physical stimulus device based at least in part on a location of the animal with respect to a destination grazing area.
1 more element
A system comprising:
- an animal behavior device comprising:
- a physical stimulus device to generate a physical output,
- memory to store animal tracking and movement software, and
- a processor to execute the animal tracking and movement software to:
- when coupled to an animal trained to according to input from the physical stimulus, direct movement of the animal coupled to the apparatus along a multi-turn route using physical output of the physical stimulus device based at least in part on a location of the animal with respect to a destination grazing area;
- one or more devices to implement an animal tracking and movement service in a multi-tenant provider network, the animal tracking and movement service including instructions that upon execution cause the animal tracking and movement service to generate the route;
- and
- a communication device to communicate with the animal behavior device to provide the generated route from the animal tracking and movement service.
