In response to the urgent demand for precision and digitized management in modern poultry farming, Magilan showcased its cutting-edge AI vision recognition technology. Built on an autonomous mobile platform and equipped with a high-precision multi-sensor array, the Layer-Guard Robot 7 provides 24/7 monitoring of flock health, significantly enhancing biosecurity while drastically reducing operational costs.
AI-Powered Vision for Precision Asset Management
- Anomaly Detection & Localization: The robot autonomously identifies and locates deceased, weak, diseased, or non-laying/low-yield hens. It boasts a ≥99% detection rate for dead and weak birds, and identifies underperforming hens with a laying rate of ≤50%. This technology replaces high-intensity manual labor and performs critical tasks previously impossible for human staff.
- Operational Loss Mitigation: By promptly identifying and removing non-productive birds, the system minimizes feed waste and effectively interrupts potential infection chains, mitigating the risk of disease outbreaks.
- Multi-Dimensional Environmental Monitoring: Integrated sensors capture real-time data on temperature, humidity, and lighting. Additionally, advanced acoustic recognition technology monitors abnormal vocalizations, such as stress-induced squawking or pest-related disturbances.
Autonomous Navigation & Robust Performance
- Cross-Building Autonomous Navigation: The Layer-Guard Robot 7 is capable of navigating multiple floors and separate poultry houses, with seamless integration for automated security doors and elevator systems.
- Terrain Adaptability: Utilizing advanced LiDAR-based navigation, the robot features adjustable patrol speeds (0-30 cm/s). Its rugged chassis can clear 3 cm obstacles and traverse gaps up to 10 cm in width.
- Extended Endurance & Safety: A single charge supports ≥12 hours of continuous operation. The robot includes autonomous obstacle detection and alerting systems, automatically resuming its mission once the path is cleared.
