Cow monitoring system

heat

Overview
Mozaë provides a monitoring sensor designed to reliably and accurately detect heats in cattle. The device is suitable for all husbandry systems, dairy and beef, measuring female behavior day and night in housing or at pasture and generating reliable alerts to support insemination decisions.

Detection performance
The system detects approximately 95% of heats compared with about 50% using visual observation alone. It recognizes clear heat signs (restlessness, bellowing, mounting of conspecifics followed by acceptance) and also identifies silent heats.

Features and benefits

• Continuous 24/7 monitoring of reproductive behavior.
• Reliable alerts to enable timely insemination decisions.
• Information on optimal insemination timing and its progression.
• Tracking of estrous cyclicity and the number of inseminations already performed.
• Specific detection of animals with excessively frequent heats (hormonal or ovarian disorders) to ease diagnosis and rapid treatment.
• Possible reduction in use of costly hormonal protocols through precise detection of heat onset.
• Long-term improvement of reproduction outcomes: reduced calving-to-first-insemination interval, optimized age at calving, increased pregnancy rate.
• Operational time savings and peace of mind for the stockperson: largely replaces manual observation.

Use cases

• Increase pregnancy rates through better-timed inseminations.
• Detect and monitor animals with reproductive disorders to avoid unnecessary inseminations and enable targeted treatment.
• Improve management on remote sites or extensive housing (better detection of heifers).

Technical characteristics / specifications

• Declared detection rate: 95% of heats.
• Suitable for dairy and beef production systems.
• Operates day and night, in housing or at pasture.
• Detects behavioral signs: agitation, bellowing, mounting and acceptance of mounting.
• Capability to detect silent heats.
• Generates alerts and provides insemination information: optimal time, trend, cyclicity, number of inseminations.
• Assists diagnosis of hormonal/ovarian disorders (detection of overly frequent heats).
• Agronomic objectives: reduce hormone use, shorten calving-to-first-insemination interval, improve age at calving and increase conception rate.
• Commercial and technical details (connectivity, power supply, dimensions, EAN, model) are not specified on this page.
