Virtual Fence Responses Are Socially Facilitated in Beef Cattle. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Vet Sci, 2020
Group-living can be socially advantageous where the behavior of individuals may be modified by group members through socially facilitative processes. Virtual fencing contains cattle by providing audio and electrical signals via a neckband device. However, little is known about social influences on learning to appropriately respond to the virtual fence (

Cattle Responses to a Type of Virtual Fence

open access: yesRangeland Ecology and Management, 2015
Interest in developing more flexible fencing technology to improve pasture and rangeland management is increasing. The objective of this study was to test the efficacy of a newvirtual fencing product and measure impact on behavior, thus potentially allowing positive development of virtual fence systems.

Stress indicators in dairy cows adapting to virtual fencing. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anim Sci
Abstract Virtual fencing (VF) enables livestock grazing without physical fences by conditioning animals to a virtual boundary delimited with an audio tone (AT) and an electric pulse (EP). The present study followed the adaptation process of lactating dairy cows to a VF system with changing virtual boundaries and investigated its impact ...

Comparison of virtually fencing and electrically fencing sheep for pasture management [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Production Science, 2022
Context Virtual fencing technology has potential for application in intensive grazing management. However, it is unknown whether the presence of the virtual fence will affect the grazing behaviour of sheep under intensive grazing situations. Aims

VIRTUAL FENCING

open access: yesInternational Journal of Innovative Research in Advanced Engineering, 2022
The virtual fencing system for animals is explained in this project. The current concept is a way to keep animals under control and track of their health without using obvious physical barriers. Animals can be kept under control by being exposed to one or more sound signals and electric shocks when they try to enter a prohibited area.

Energy-efficient localization for virtual fencing [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 9th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks, 2010
This poster addresses the tradeoff between energy consumption and localization performance in a mobile sensor network application. It focuses on combining GPS location with more energy-efficient location sensors to bound position estimate uncertainty in order to prolong node lifetime.
