Application shown above is Cattlewatch, a wireless mesh network application that equips cows with remote sensors and then connects to the Iridium satellites so ranchers can remotely manage their herd.
Going the distance: power supply management in an asset tracking device (as appeared in GPS World)
Tadiran TLI Series rechargeable Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are also utilized to track the location and status of cattle and other domesticated animals. Unlike consumer grade Li-ion batteries, TLI Series batteries can operate for up to 20 years and 5,000 full recharge cycles, with an extended temperature range, and the ability to deliver the high pulses needed to power wireless communications, thus allowing farmers to remotely manage their herds to enhance the safety and well-being of the animals.
