Animal monitoring system via AI based top mounted cameras to study anti-diabetic and anti-anxiety effect of Dopamine Agonists in animal model

Technology

This solution provides an advanced, AI-powered Animal Monitoring System (AMS) specifically designed for studying the anti-diabetic and anti-anxiety effects of Dopamine Agonists in animal models, with a primary focus on diabetic rats. The AMS goes beyond traditional observation methods by employing top-mounted cameras, Micro-controller units (Arduino NANO or ESP-32), and miniature ESP-32 cameras to enable real-time tracking of animal behaviour, body temperature, and heart rate. This comprehensive data stream provides researchers with unprecedented insights into physiological responses during drug testing, allowing for more accurate analysis and evaluation of treatment efficacy.

Problem Addressed

A key feature of the AMS is its seamless remote camera control through mobile applications or IoT devices. This empowers researchers to efficiently collect data and capture crucial moments during experiments from a distance, minimizing stress on the animals and ensuring uninterrupted data collection. Additionally, the integrated temperature and heart rate monitoring allows for real-time adjustments to the camera's focus, guaranteeing that no understated physiological changes are missed. The AMS offers significant potential beyond its primary research purpose. Its capabilities can be adapted for diverse applications such as drug development and toxicity assessment across various animal models. Furthermore, the system's focus on minimizing animal stress aligns with the growing emphasis on animal welfare in scientific research.
