About this Event

One of the biggest innovations currently being investigated is wireless fencing. How does it work, and what are the practical implementations? Wireless fencing involves grazing animals wearing a GPS collar which plays an audible melody and if necessary, emits an electric pulse to the neck to deter the animal from crossing a virtual boundary. During this event, Aurelie Aubry (AFBI) will give an update on the latest research, as well as an overview of how it works and practical considerations.
