TrackLab is the complete tracking solution for your research on animal and human behavior. Save time on data collection and analysis, and obtain real-time insights into a wide range of spatial behaviors, in developmental psychology and healthcare research or livestock and other animal behavior research.

Where can you use TrackLab for?

TrackLab is used to gain insight into spatial behavior. Where is that cow going? Why isn’t he anywhere the feeding area? Or where is the consumer in the shop going? Is he following the path where all the discount items are displayed? TrackLab is ideal for livestock research in various segments such as academic, veterinary, livestock breeding, and more. It can also be used in hospitals for spatial behavior analysis or in retail settings such as supermarkets.

You can use TrackLab as follows: specify the room or barn or playground where you want to perform your research. Create a map of this area. Then discuss the hardware technology that is most suitable for your set up with a scientific sales engineer from Noldus. It can include Ultra-Wideband tags and receivers or in an outdoor environment GPS tags and a U-blox SAM-M8Q receiver.

Research areas - livestock research

Start using TrackLab, easily collect spatial data and behavioral statistics, and learn more about wayfinding and space utilization of your livestock.

TrackLab is used for livestock research in various segments such as academic, veterinary, livestock breeding, and more.

It is a tag-based system, which means that animals wear tags (collar-based, ear-tags, backpack, etc.) to collect data on their location and movement.

"The installation of TrackLab was a success and the whole team present for the installation were pleased with the accuracy and the possibilities of the system."

Indoor and outdoor solutions

The types of tags used in a TrackLab solution depend on the environment. For indoor environments, Ultra-Wideband (UWB) tags are used. For larger outdoor environment the system is typically based on GPS tags.

Animal tracking system

The TrackLab animal tracking system allows you to control recording sessions manually or with a calendar-based scheduling tool. After data collection, you can replay data and use maps, profiles to visualize your results.

How does TrackLab work?

TrackLab will aid you in the process of your work on understanding the spatial behavior in animals. TrackLab is useful for researchers in academic institutes, research organizations, and R&D of large companies in animal husbandry.
