Abstract
A monitoring and/or food/water/medicine control system and method of use of the systems provide that (i) an experimenter at the computer desktop sets the schedule for feeding/fasting (food or water or medicine) the animal according to their need, and the animal's access to food or water or medicine will be set accordingly. This allows animal scientists, experimentalists, and experimenters to fully control animal feeding scenarios; (ii) the experimenter remotely opens and closes the animal's access to food/water/medicine regardless of the pre-set schedule; (iii) the experimenter checks the animal's status via real-time monitoring; (iv) an artificial intelligence system identifies and tracks the animal's location and its activities; and (v) a software module connects the vision unit and feeding mechanism to the experimenter's desktop to provide full control of both the vision unit and the feeding mechanism, to calculate different parameters of the animal's activities, and to report the animal's feeding/fasting history, activity history, and upcoming scheduled feedings.
