Lameness detection in cattle using ICT technology

Since the problem of lameness is very common on dairy farms, it is necessary to apply newer technologies that can contribute to reducing the frequency of lameness. Information Computer Technologies (ICT) is becoming increasingly widespread to monitor the levels of the production, functional, welfare and health traits. With automated lameness detection methods a large amount of data can be collected in short period of time, which can improve lameness prediction accuracy. The application of ICT technology in the detection and prevention of lameness in cows in milk production is possible and has a future. Currently, ICT are strongly represented at the level of scientific approach with a tendency to be applied in practice on a daily basis. Significant effort and cooperation of several different groups of people (scientists, IT specialists, and farmers) are needed in order for ICT to be successfully implemented in continuous practical application.
