Abstract: A system and method of tracking animal livestock using electronic frequency signal transmitters and receivers is herein presented. The system involves electronic tags attached to the bodies of livestock. The tags transmit a signal which conveys the location or other pertinent information regarding the status of the animal. The signals are picked up by a receiver attached to a stationary platform, or located in a vehicle, or in a portable hand held receiver device. The information transmitted can be used to locate a specific animal or can be used to monitor the status and condition of the animal. The device contains several modes which minimize power consumption and maximize power supply lifetime.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and a method for selecting an appropriate location for displaying messages, such as graphic or textual advertisements, on the display screen of users of electronic devices. Embodiments of the present invention employ algorithms for analyzing the graphic content of the screen in real-time to select the most appropriate position for placing the message. In addition, according to some embodiments of the present invention the activities of the user are also monitored to enhance the suitability of the selected position of the advertisements. The algorithm constantly monitors screen information and user activity and removes the message whenever the selected area is no longer appropriate for displaying the message.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and device for detecting estrus in animal by sensing along time the motion of the animal and identifying when the sensed motion is not related to eating periods of the animal.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and device for detecting estrus in animal by sensing along time the motion of the animal and identifying when the sensed motion is not related to eating periods of the animal. Based on the sensed motion which is not related to eating periods the estrus in the animal is identified.

Abstract: A device for measurement of fluid flow in a conduit comprising a housing having an upstream end formed with a fluid inlet, a downstream end formed with a fluid outlet, a fluid flow path extending between the inlet port and the outlet port and having longitudinal axis, and one ore more flexible leaves fixedly mounted within the housing and extending into the fluid flow path, each having a leaf axis normal to a leaf plane, the one or more leaves being deformable responsive to fluid flow rate within the conduit. A measuring system for measuring deflection rate of each leaf responsive to fluid flow within the conduit and for generating a rate signal corresponding with the deflection rate, and a processor unit for processing the rate signal and converting it to an output signal indicative of fluid flow rate within the conduit.
