Micro-controlled design of portable cattle mastitis detection system

This work presents a novel handheld mastitis detection device for detecting mastitis in dairy cattle, as well as a cattle management information system for managing cattle health information. The management information system comprises of three major subsystems—a mastitis detection device, an information display device, and a cloud database. The mastitis detection device detects and evaluates the degree of mastitis immediately before milking operations are carried out. The information display device shows the health information of the dairy cattle obtained from a cloud database and the database manages the milk production of a dairy farm. The combination of these two devices helps the dairy farmer to verify the mastitis of cattle effectively and find its health information rapidly.
