The developed poultry monitoring system integrates infrared thermal imager, visible camera, temperature and humidity sensor, anemometer, carbon dioxide sensor and ammonia sensor with Raspberry Pi. This monitoring system could not only collect poultry physiological and environmental information but also calculate poultry activity by the poultry activity algorithm for assessing the poultry health. In addition, the collected information could be uploaded to the cloud database real time by WIFI. Therefore, the poultry farmer could monitor the breeding environment information and the physiological information of the chickens in real time.
