Summary of the technology

A novel system architecture for day-old chick sexing based on passive thermodynamics. Unlike manual venting (slow/invasive) or molecular testing (expensive), this solution offers 100% contactless sexing at industrial line speeds (>60,000 chicks/hour) with negligible operational costs (<$0.001/chick). Validated by feasibility studies.

Details of the Technology Offer

he poultry industry seeks a humane, high-speed alternative to manual sexing for commercial layers. Current automated solutions are either too slow, too expensive (DNA/PCR), or biologically intrusive.

We have designed a "Flash-Thermography" architecture that integrates seamlessly into existing conveyor lines. By exploiting natural differential thermal conductivity properties between male and female chicks, the system achieves real-time classification without physically touching the animals.

Key Technical Metrics:

  • Throughput: Designed for >60,000 chicks/hour (matches standard industrial speeds).

  • Latency: Real-time processing (<16ms per bird) utilizing 60Hz radiometric sensors.

  • Accuracy: Theoretical accuracy >98% based on signal-to-noise ratio calculations (Delta T > 10°C).

  • Hardware: Relies on standard COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) thermal vision components. No proprietary hardware development required.

Status: Concept and architecture fully validated by thermodynamic simulation and feasibility proof. Ready for prototyping with an industrial partner
