Farmers may flock to a faster, cheaper and more environmentally friendly way to tell their sheep apart.
Dunedin's Benoit Auvray and Greg Peyroux received funding from New Zealand's innovation agency, Callaghan Innovation, to prototype the world's first sheep machine-learning model.
Through their venture, Iris Data Science, they created Sheep NN, a model that analyses goats and cattle, as well as sheep.
