BoviSensor: Detect Cattle Pain

BoviSensor – Cattle Pain Detection App. Pain detection in cattle can be particularly challenging, as these animals often show subtle or ambiguous signs of discomfort. However, pain management and detection are essential to ensure both the health and welfare of cows and calves. Until recently, pain assessment tools for cattle were limited, with most assessments focusing solely on lameness. Under the leadership of Oniris (the National Veterinary School of Nantes, France), a panel of veterinary experts has developed a set of specific and easy-to-use pain assessment grids tailored to various common health conditions in cattle. BoviSensor is a practical tool built on this expert consensus, designed to help farmers, veterinarians detect pain more effectively and act accordingly. Key Features: Objective Pain Assessment Identify if your animal is in pain and make informed decisions to manage and relieve it. Behavior-Based Evaluation Observe and record your animal’s behavior using scientifically validated criteria. Simply select the signs that best describe what you see. Pain Scoring & Expert Guidance The app calculates a pain score and offers expert-based recommendations to support the recovery and well-being of your animal. Shareable Reports Export and share assessment results easily for improved follow-up, collaboration, and care planning. BoviSensor brings expert veterinary knowledge into the field—right at your fingertips—to help ensure your cattle are healthy, comfortable, and well cared for.
