Since several years, Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) has experienced a significant progress mainly due to the electronics and embedded systems miniaturization, along with the Internet of Things expansion. Geolocation and animal behavior identification are common research subjects in PLF, and several solutions have been proposed in this frame. Nevertheless, the development and generalization of this kind of tools must still face up several technical and societal challenges and, in order to overcome these difficulties, a multidisciplinary work is necessary. In this context, this paper presents the e-Pasto experimental platform, which employs different smart interfaces, as a case-study to analyze the main issues related to the implementation of PLF solutions. Along with this analysis, some relevant aspects of current systems are studied and discussed from different points of view, from technological to human ones, with the aim of offering a new vision, which tries to take into account, as far as possible, the final user needs.Read less <
