Abstract

A real-time tracing, transmitting and analyzing system for flight animals is disclosed. The real-time tracing, transmitting and analyzing system has a tracing and transmitting device with a weight between 1 and 10 grams. The tracing and transmitting device is fastened on any part of a flight animal's body (the flight animal's concave ring portion between its body and tail is most suitable), for capturing real-time flight information (such as location, height, flight velocity, and the physical and mental states of the flight animal) of the flight animal by using GPS. Moreover, the real-time flight information is transmitted via a base station to a flight information-analyzing device for immediately displaying the real-time flight information regarding each flight animal for reference via the flight information-analyzing device. Thereby, in a pigeon race, for example, breeders can obtain any real-time flight information that they desire regarding each flight animal.
