==APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A FEED SUPPLY AMOUNT BASED ON FEED INTAKE INTENTION OF LIVESTOCK - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18237703 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A FEED SUPPLY AMOUNT BASED ON FEED INTAKE INTENTION OF LIVESTOCK

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes an apparatus and method for controlling a feed supply amount based on the feed intake intention of livestock. The apparatus includes a feed intake intention quantification part that perceives the feed intake intention of livestock using image information obtained by photographing a certain region within a livestock farm, quantifying it as a feed intake intention value. It also includes a feed intake intention-based feed supply amount control part that generates a command for controlling the feed supply amount in consideration of the feed intake intention value.

* The apparatus uses image information to quantify the feed intake intention of livestock.
* The feed supply amount is controlled based on the quantified feed intake intention value.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in livestock farming operations to optimize feed supply and improve overall animal health and productivity.

== Problems Solved ==
1. Inefficient feed supply management in livestock farming.
2. Inaccurate assessment of feed intake intention of livestock.

== Benefits ==
1. Improved feed efficiency.
2. Enhanced livestock health and productivity.
3. Cost savings in feed management.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Optimized feed supply systems for livestock farms.

== Possible Prior Art ==
There may be existing systems for monitoring feed intake in livestock, but the use of image information for quantifying feed intake intention could be a novel aspect of this technology.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

== How does the apparatus differentiate between individual animals within a group for feed intake intention quantification? ==
The patent application does not provide details on how the apparatus distinguishes between individual animals within a group for accurate feed intake intention quantification.

== What is the accuracy rate of the feed intake intention quantification process using image information? ==
The patent application does not mention the accuracy rate of the feed intake intention quantification process using image information.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Provided are an apparatus and method for controlling a feed supply amount based on feed intake intention of livestock. The apparatus for controlling a feed supply amount based on feed intake intention of livestock includes a feed intake intention quantification part which perceives feed intake intention of livestock by using image information obtained by photographing a certain region within a livestock farm and quantifies the feed intake intention of livestock as a feed intake intention value, and a feed intake intention-based feed supply amount control part generating a command for controlling a feed supply amount in consideration of the feed intake intention value.
