1. Lameness Detection in Dairy Cattle Using GPS and Accelerometers Wearable Sensors

Lameness significantly impacts cow health and welfare on dairy farms, yet identifying lamecows remains challenging. Wearable sensors like GPS and accelerometers show promise for automated lameness detection, but their effectiveness outdoors is still unclear. Therefore, there are gaps in understanding their applicability and the necessary features for outdoor settings. Additionally, it is uncertain whether environmental factors, such as temperature and time of day, influence their the model performance,... N. Mhlongo, H. De knegt, W.F. De boer, F. Van langevelde
