Description

Location <B>and Directional</B> Tracking <B>System</B> <B><U>The Invention</U></B> The invention referred to within this document will consist of a tracking system with wide and varied operational applications, it will consist of an impregnated transmitter which will relay to a grid orientation receiver which will enable the location of individual items to include game birds. The transmitter will emit either radio signals or in the final product may work from a Global Positioning System dependant on cost analysis. The <U>Benefits</U> The benefits of the system are as follow, the ability of being able to locate accurately the movement of game birds throughout the year this will enable estate management information as to breeding habits, predator control and an exact location of game stock at any given time.
Most shooting estates are totally reliant on the skills of their keepers and the knowledge they accrue over the years while this is successful to a certain extent there are many wasted hours with stock either missing or stolen at a cost of many hundreds of thousands of pounds per year. It is impossible for the keepers to know accurately how many birds are in a certain area and for how long. The system (LDTS) will enable the keepers to work with confidence they will be in a position to know exactly how many birds there are and even what type and sex. They will be able to plan their shooting days by the hour rather than at best the day before. The cost of feeding can be cut through knowing what and where to feed. Predator problems can be detected at an early stage as can disease. <B><U>What</U></B> the <B><U>invention accomplishes</U></B> The invention (LDTS) will enable immediate estate management in respect of game birds. It will allow accurate and detailed information which can be accessed by the owner/keeper. The system will be light weight, portable and `user friendly'. The ability to locate stock instantly and track their habits and movement will offer tremendous financial savings to any shooting estate coupled with the ability to offer the customer exactly what has been promised contractually. <B><U>Features</U></B> The system will consist of alight weight transmitter chip which will be inserted into each game poult as soon as the bird is of a consist size and weight determined by the hatchery or estate keeper. This chip will relay the information of the particular host to which it has been inserted this information will consist of type pheasant, partridge or grouse male / female, reference number there may be further information items specific to a particular situation this could also be included within the systems capabilities. The chips would relay the information to a compact computer screen in the form of pre inserted grid reference maps of the estate showing land marks and boundaries with feeding areas and other information highlighted.
The construction of the chips will be dealt with by a pre determined software manufacturer as will be the viewing console which will have the ability to be mounted in a mobile capacity for ease of use. All the components used will be durable lightweight and waterproof.

Claims (4)

  1. CLAIMS 1. A tracking device for game birds consisting of transmitters and receiver devices
  2. 2. A tracking device as claimed in point one the transmitter attached or inserted to the subject. The receiver to either be fixed or potable in construction.
  3. 3. The tracking system as claimed in one and two will be capable to transmit relevant information from the subject too the receiver.
  4. 4. The tracking system as claimed in any proceeding claim will be constructed from robust and weatherproof materials. S. The tracking system as claimed in any proceeding claim which made from plastics material, metal, carbon, wood or indeed any other material suitable for the construction of the system or from any or every combination of these materials. 6. The tracking device as in claim two consist of the receiver consol, which will display localised Ordnance Survey information in particular mapping and, topography. 7. The tracking device as claimed in point one and two in particular the transmitter element of the tracking system, will be capable of transmitting all the relevant information regarding the subject too the receiver this will include location type and quantity also any other information which will be programmed to aid the operator of the tracking device. 8. The tracking system will function by way of satellite (GPS), fixed dished system, Ariel or any other method of relaying information from the transmitter to the receiver the method will be dependant on the actual site requirements of the end user. 9. Mains, battery or any other power system suitable will power the tracking system as in claim one. 10. The tracking system will wholly operate on a predefined frequency applicable to each individual complete system.
