A VF collar generally consists of several key components: GPS detection, a cellular or radio receiver and transmitter, the ability to emit audio warnings, electrodes for delivering an electric pulse, a plastic insulator at the top to separate the electrodes, and a battery.
VF collars use both satellite and cellular networks to function. The collars rely on GPS satellites track the animals location in relation to the VF boundary, triggering audio cues and mild electric pulses to guide the animal when it approaches the boundary.
Designing a VF boundary is simple and user-friendly. While the exact process varies between companies, the general approach is the same. Livestock producers open an app on their phone or a website on their desktop, typically displaying a Google map of their property.
To activate a VF, simply select the entire herd or individual animals, choose the desired VF, and click send. The instructions are transmitted via a cellular network to the collars on the animals out on the range. Most collars update within a few minutes to an hour.
Each companys VF system contain livestock differently, but they all function in a similar way. When an animal approaches the VF boundary, the collar enters an active mode and begins tracking the animals location more frequently.
