Barn Vitals

Herd Respiration & Rumination Vitals

Research concept for herd respiration and rumination proxies; not illness detection or veterinary monitoring.

Readiness Shared-family mapped

Mapped to a shared offline runtime family and usable with a recording or compatible ESP32 CSI stream.

Evidence Frontier Unvalidated concept

An early research proposal with no capability-specific product validation yet.

Runtime family Breathing rate

Sub-Hz periodicity estimate for a still subject; not a medical diagnosis.

When no ESP32 is connected

No compatible ESP32 stream is connected. Use the bundled Agriculture recording; it demonstrates the shared Breathing rate runtime, not independent proof of this capability.

Intended capability

Pilot this intended outcome through the shared Breathing rate family, then validate it against site-specific ground truth: Continuous device-free breathing rate and rumination (jaw/chest cadence) monitoring across a pen of cattle or pigs, flagging animals whose respiration climbs or rumination stalls hours before overt illness (pneumonia, bloat, acidosis).

This describes the intended outcome. Readiness is shared-family mapped, evidence is class C, and a catalog mapping or recording is not proof of this outcome at a real site.

Bundled recording

A related Agriculture scene

This is one recorded vertical scenario. It is not separate validation of every capability in the catalog.

01 The physics

Thoracic expansion and rumen contractions modulate the chest wall position by cm-scale at 0.1-0.5Hz (breathing) and ~0.02-0.03Hz (rumination cycles), phase-modulating the reflected CSI exactly like the proven human breathing band. Fever/respiratory distress raises rate and shallows depth, shifting the Doppler line.

02 Shared processing path

Doppler/micro-Doppler band-pass 0.1-0.5Hz per spatial bin -> RTI to attribute each respiration signature to a pen zone -> per-zone radar cones hold breathing-presence on still animals — static energy says alive-and-there, never a respiration-rate readout; rate and rumination trending stay CSI -> adaptive PCA+MVE anomaly manifold vs rolling per-animal baseline -> compartment CUSUM to catch multi-hour rate creep

This is a capability design path. Components may be shared with other catalog entries; it is not presented as a unique algorithm.

03 Validation plan

Own-hardware: 6x ESP32 mesh over a calf pen, ground-truth with flank-belt respiration sensors + thermometry over a respiratory-disease season; borrow human respiration extraction validation from OPERAnet to prove the 0.1-0.5Hz pipeline first.

04 Commercial hypothesis

'Barn Vitals' — sub-clinical illness early-warning for feedlot/dairy vets and herd managers, no wearables — a WiFi mesh and a few small mmWave radars per pen.
