Nikon's AI Cow Birth Alert System to Launch in Japan
- Nikon developed an AI camera system to predict when cows will give birth, up to 5 hours in advance
- The system uses security cameras and AI to analyze cow behavior and alert farmers via a smartphone app
- It will launch in Japan this month for $6,100 per year to cover 100 cows
- Nikon tested it on 4 farms with good results - one farmer called it a "great help" instead of checking cows every few hours
- Beyond cameras, Nikon makes other products like microscopes and is using AI to verify real vs fake images
