No need to get out of bed to check on livestock at night—you can check them on
your smartphone or tablet using the cameras.

• No need to disturb calving cows or lambing ewes by switching on the lights and
entering the shed if nothing requires assistance.

• Gives you the ability to monitor lambs and calves remotely to see if they have
sucked without disturbing the bonding process between mother and offspring.
This results in saved time and costs tubing/hand feeding lambs and calves that
do not require it and allows lambs and calves to be quickly identified if tubing/
hand feeding is required.

• Allows you to get on with other work instead of hanging about the lambing/calving
shed waiting for something to happen.
