What is wireless foaling cameras and Equipment camera?

Farm cameras have a great number of applications. They are used for security and surveillance, on equipment and in barns and pens to keep an eye on the livestock.

Wireless foaling cameras or calving cameras are basically wireless farm cameras that are used for all kinds of surveillance or observation requirements around the barn, in the pen or on the farm. The almost invisible wireless foaling camera can monitor the stables at critical times like birthing without disturbing the mares. The ubiquitous wireless farm camera is much more than just surveillance equipment and fulfils a much larger scope than the original calving, foaling, farrowing and lambing function that it was developed for.

 In recent times a whole livestock monitoring systems has been developed to keep an eye on sick animals, monitor tack rooms, and observe animals riding in the trailer you are pulling. These wireless cameras are strong, toughly built to withstand harsh weather conditions on barns and can be used for all of the surveillance tasks that a barn requires. The wireless foaling cameras have the capability to transmit a clear video image to the television screen or laptop. The equipment camera can also transmit images from about two miles when the camera is attached to a farm vehicle such as a tractor that has gone to the neighbouring villagemarket.  

The complete farm  surveillance system is used in multiple situations at a farm. This system consists of a few cameras that can be installed almost anywhere such as the periphery, the stables, the tractor and other equipment. There is a wireless transmitter that is attached outside the building or shed that is used to transmit the images that are captured by the camera. The transmitter transmits these images to one or two monitors that are placed inside the living area or the work area of the farm. There is also a recorder where the video is recorded and can be played back if needed.

The use of wireless foaling cameras has increased manifold as these have helped to save many foals, calves, mares and cows wherever they have been used.
