Introducing the Bovisen Evaluation Kit

Getting started with a new monitoring technology on a working cattle operation involves real logistical questions: How does the hardware perform in actual pen conditions? How much time does setup take? What does the data actually look like when things are going well, and when they are not?

The Bovisen evaluation kit is designed to answer those questions with real hardware, in a real operation, without a long procurement process.

What's in the Kit

Each evaluation kit includes a small number of ear tags, a compact indoor gateway, and access to the Bovisen dashboard. The gateway connects to the cellular network out of the box — no Wi-Fi configuration or IT involvement required. Tags are activated with a magnet and installed using a standard AllFlex tagger.

Designed for Low Friction

The goal of the evaluation kit is to get from unboxing to live data in under an hour. The gateway requires a standard 110v outlet and a high mounting location. Tags take about two minutes each to activate and install. Once installed, data begins appearing on the dashboard automatically.

Who the Kit Is For

Evaluation kits are available to feedlot operators, dairy farm managers, bovine researchers, and veterinary practitioners who want to evaluate continuous monitoring before committing to a full deployment. The kit is not a stripped-down version of the product — it is the same hardware and software used in commercial operations.
