This invention describes a health and safety system specifically for horses, built into a tamper-proof halter or bridle. It uses flexible, finger-like probes that gently extend through the horse's fur to collect detailed biochemical data, such as saliva analysis, pH, and pathogen detection. This information, along with environmental conditions and the horse's location, is then sent remotely to a designated caregiver.
Why it matters: Progress in flexible biosensor integration and microfluidics since 2023 could make the specialized probes more feasible. However, reliably sampling multiple complex biochemicals through animal fur remains a core challenge.
