This project investigates how a combination of different sensor methods and artificial intelligence technologies, which can detect behavior (including interaction), position, activity, weight, temperature and heart rate on or in the environment of young piglets and calves, can provide insight. With the goal of gaining more insight into the welfare of young animals (newly born calves and piglets) and using that knowledge to further enhance animal welfare.

The goal of STRAP is to detect heart disease early and/or prevent heart disease. To achieve this goal, fundamental research is conducted using creative methods, big data, and new techniques. Rather than focusing on early prevention, encouraging weight loss, and promoting exercise in young people, STRAP aims to provide support where it matters the most—in patients who are already ill—keeping them healthier and out of the hospital.
