This workshop will cover the fundamentals of understanding necessary to develop visual livestock data collection and processing applications for mobile devices. Three topics will be covered:

  1. background of automated visual understanding of livestock,
  2. development of a mobile application for livestock tracking for iOS, and
  3. demonstration of multi-platform mobile application development.

The workshop will be of interest to those who would like to develop mobile device applications for automated visual understanding of physical objects in animal and plant systems.

Note: Workshop attendance is limited to 50 seats. Registration for this workshop is now closed
