Lameness in dairy cows is a major challenge for the industry, affecting both animal welfare and farm profitability. In German farms, 30-40% of cows suffer from lameness, leading to significant economic losses, reduced milk production, and increased costs. Our innovative AI-powered lameness detection system addresses this urgent issue by providing farmers with real-time monitoring and early detection capabilities. By leveraging advanced technologies, we aim to improve herd health, reduce treatment costs, and enhance overall farm efficiency.
