Smart pasture monitoring system based on beyond visual range video technology

Abstract

The invention discloses a smart pasture monitoring system based on a beyond visual range video technology. The system comprises a video obtaining module, a video processing module and an information management module. According to the system, beyond visual cameras are controlled to photograph a pasture through the information management module; whether photographed videos satisfy a definition demand or not is judged through the video processing module; if the photographed videos do not satisfy the definition demand, the system carries out automatic focus, photographing and evaluation until the photographed videos satisfy the definition demand; then the video processing module splices the images photographed by all beyond visual cameras at a same moment, so that the whole pasture images of the current moment are obtained; the herd in the pasture is located and counted by taking the coordinate of a certain beyond visual camera as a reference; moreover, the information management module records the count and location information of the herd at the moment, stores related videos and judges whether to give out an early warning on a herd owner or not; and therefore, the pasturing process in an open pasture space is intelligently managed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of over-the-horizon target monitoring, in particular to an intelligent grazing monitoring system based on over-the-horizon video technology. Background technique [0002] Animal husbandry has been developed for thousands of years in our country, and has gradually developed from a backward nomadic breeding model to the current semi-modern half-house and house-raising model. Especially in recent years, with the introduction of various new feeding technologies and management methods, my country's animal husbandry has made great progress, and has made leaps and bounds in breeding, disease prevention, feed refinement, etc., but still It has not fundamentally changed its small-scale and outdated production methods operated by individual households, mainly because large-scale animal husbandry management is difficult, and the mainstream half-house and house-raising models are too costly. [0003] There are large-scale natural...

Problems solved by technology

Obviously, this type of method still requires a lot of manual follow-up intervention, otherwise the herd will not automatically pass through multiple base stations, resulting in herds actually grazing according to a fixed path. At the same time, its real-time positioning is poor and the regional error is too large, which makes it difficult to reflect the effect of intelligence

The third category is the method of UAV aerial video combined with GPS positioning ("Grazing system and grazing method based on unmanned aerial vehicle", ZL201510796696.8; "Smart grazing monitoring method and system", ZL201510528382.X). The GPS worn on the animal sends the location information of the herd to the receiver of the UAV, and guides the UAV to take aerial photography at the position guided by the GPS, so as to achieve the purpose of one-to-one correspondence between the video and the location, and then the UAV brings the video back. The main control room is for manual judgment. This kind of method still needs to wear GPS with super endurance on the animal, and the video needs manual judgment. It is not satisfactory in terms of convenience, feasibility, cost and intelligence.
