Abstract:
A system that includes a three-dimensional (3D) camera configured to capture a 3D image of a rearview of a dairy livestock in a stall and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain the 3D image, identify one or more regions within the 3D image comprising depth values greater than a depth value threshold, and s to identify a thigh gap region from the one or more regions. The processor is further configured to demarcate an access region within the thigh gap region and demarcate a tail detection region. The processor is further configured to identify one or more tail candidates within the tail detection region, to identify a tail candidate that corresponds with a tail model as the tail, and to determine position information for the tail.

Claim (Index 9):
The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein:\n the memory is operable to store a thigh gap detection rule set that identifies a marker positioned between the hind legs of the dairy livestock at a lower edge of the 3D image; and identifying the thigh gap region comprises applying the thigh gap detection rule set to the one or more regions to identify the thigh gap region, wherein applying the thigh gap detection rule set comprises identifying a region from among the one or more regions that comprises the marker as the thigh gap region.
