About corvitac

corvitac GmbH is a company based in Hanover that develops and offers solutions for the digitalization of pig farming. Its core product is the corvitac Pig-Counter, a camera system for automatic counting of piglets and fattening pigs during sale, loading and rehousing. The image recognition is based on artificial intelligence, distinguishes between humans and pigs, and also works with animals moving backwards. Every count is documented by video and is therefore verifiable; the results can be automatically reported to the animal information system HI-Tier. The portfolio includes the permanently installed Pig-Counter Server system for slaughterhouses and larger operations as well as the mobile Pig-Counter Portable. The systems are installed individually according to customers' needs and can be maintained remotely. The software is available for desktop and mobile devices.
