Platform for Animal Observation

An efficient system to monitor animal behaviour in wildlife as well as in laboratory settings

• Compatible with different RFID systems and triggers
• Low power consumption and specific data collection lead to long lasting collection periods
• Applicable world-wide due to its compatibility with different types of radio clock receivers
• High observation quality through low disturbance of the animals

• Time Synchronization with atomic clock once a day to ensure optimal data quality
• Current Control twice a day
• Forecast for Battery-Change implemented
• Energy Bypass so that Date and Time are maintained even when changing battery
• Hyperterminal Output to get real-time data in the field
• Low-Power Device:sleep: 12V@40µA awake: 12V@12mA
