Make rearing records
easier to follow.
A concept for recording batches, climate and growth, informed by Cristian’s sensing and data work. This is an exploratory direction; no software is available to use.
Proposed air circulation across shelf gaps. 28°C, 65% relative humidity and 24 m³/h are assumed targets.
Pointer and keyboard controls
Drag the dark tray or hold ↑ / ↓ on the drawing; ← / → change stages. Hold the feed button, Space or F to demonstrate feeding.
On the tray slider, arrows move the tray; Home closes and End opens. Escape releases held controls; reduced motion keeps the tour still.
This climate example shows a proposed physical process and assumed operating targets. It illustrates physical airflow rather than an available software interface or a live sensor feed.
Which records would help an operator?
Managing a growing colony raised practical questions about growth, variation and daily work. Those questions provide a starting point for designing and testing future tools with operators.
- Batch histories
- How could a future tool make the relationship between trays, life stages and daily work easier to follow?
- Sensing and visual computing
- Which observations would help an operator understand growth and variation, and which sensors would support them?
- Useful records
- What would an operator need to inspect, compare and share? These are development questions, rather than available product features.
