Abstract

Video cameras capture video images of livestock and transmit the images to a computer. The computer identifies individual livestock based on biometric markings. The computer performs pixel enhancement to amplify breathing motion and calculates a respiration rate. A sudden increase in respiration rate indicates respiratory compromise, such as pneumonia or BRD.
