The
system works by gluing a small, radio transmitter with a
pressure sensor on the tailhead of the cow. When a cow
is mounted, information on that mount is sent to a small
radio receiver and then down into the producer's PC
HeatWatch
software delivers, at any time, all the mounting
activity of any animal wearing a transmitter. It
displays all cows in heat, coming into heat, and the
precise time of heat onset.
HeatWatch
uses patented computer based, remote sensing technology that
detects and records over 95 percent of all standing mounts - 24 hours a day,
seven days a week.

1.
Every time there is a mount, data is sent
from that particular transmitter to the
receiver and stored in the buffer until you
access it by the computer software for
HeatWatch. Data that is generated on every
mount includes the cow mounted, date and
time of the mount and duration of the mount
in seconds. 2.
The receiver collects
and transmits data from up to 1/4 mile away on each cow to your personal
computer. Plus, the system can be designed to cover greater distances,
provide remote access and portability too.
3. A buffer attached to your PC
stores the data until you access it via the HeatWatch software. |
Information in
the system allows producers to retrieve heat activity of past estrus
cycles, and to record information on breeding activity (inseminator,
time of insemination, sire used, rebreeds, etc.).
There is
literally no one using the system that will not say it is one of the
best investments they have made in their A.I. program and provides one
of the quickest returns they have ever experienced.
HeatWatch
is first and foremost a tremendous aid in the accurate, efficient,
reliable detection of estrus activity in cows/heifers. It enables
producers to very accurately inseminate and manage their cattle
reproductive program.
When mounting
begins, a receiver collects and transmits mounting information to your
personal computer (PC).
All you do is
pull up your
HeatWatch
software program and all the data you need is there. It tells you which
cows were mounted and when. It's very powerful and easy!
Benefits
Your Breeding Program!

HeatWatch
helps
you manage your breeding program by accurately detecting
heats and determining the precise onset of standing
heat.
Imagine
Knowing The Precise Onset Of Estrus For Each Cow Or
Heifer
How
much could you produce? How much could you save in
operational costs?
HeatWatch
has the answers.
Because
HeatWatch
catches over 95% of all standing mounts, your A.I. accuracy
will go through the roof rather than down the drain. This
translates into substantial, measurable economic gains with
more valuable A.I. - bred calves on the ground, which in
turn offers stronger economic returns.
HeatWatch
enables the commercial beef producer and seed stock producer
to utilize A.I. or ET with consistently outstanding results.
- Improves A.I.
conception rates
- Reduces the number of
repeat breedings
- Increases management
efficiency
- Improves semen cost
management
- Identifies problem
cows early

Finally, the normal
return on investment for cattle operations using the
HeatWatch
system is two years or less!
