Pheromone-based sensor system for detecting estrus in dairy cows (BOVINOSE)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2011,
"In order to control the calving interval, and therefore to optimise milk production and maximise offspring in dairy cattle, artificial insemination (AI) is widely used. Currently, the conception rate of AI varies from 30% to 70%, the most critical aspect of successful conception being the timing of the insemination. Highest conception rates are achieved when the insemination is done 8 to 12 hours ...

Development of a heelless shoe to reduce injury during running (HEELLESS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2010,
"As healthy as it is to keep fit by running, the repetitive stresses and strains on joints cause a large percentage of the injuries experienced during this sport. HEELLESS aims to develop a novel type of running shoe that prevents joint injury and muscle strain by mitigating the impact force that results from impact force when the foot strikes the ground during running; notably the peak force when ...
