We are a team of enthusiasts who more than 3 years ago decided to launch an extremely interesting and, as it seemed to us, a very useful project.
Since the team consists of the highest-class specialists in the field of electronics, programming, mathematical analysis, and artificial intelligence, as well as a trainer in equestrian sports, we decided, using our knowledge, to try to anticipate the signs of a horse’s lameness in advance and warn the owner about a possible approaching illness…
And, to our surprise, the project turned out to be extremely interesting!
So interesting that we felt it was right to share it with everyone who is involved in equestrian sports and takes care of their pets.
And we decided to open the "behind the scenes" of the project development. Yes, we are ready to tell you exactly what, why, and how we do it. Share our barriers and discoveries. Perhaps we will ask you for advice, and we will listen to it with pleasure.
In general - we invite you to a previously unknown path!
A little history of the development of the project
What interesting thing is happening right now?...)
Oddly enough, we are faced with a situation where we know everything about the horse's
movements!... Artificial intelligence processes thousands of animal movements, receives information, analyzes and interprets it in an understandable format. But what exactly of what we have might be of interest to you? Length of training?... Gait ratio during training? Power of a jumping horse? Landing force? We can show it all. Tell me what's interesting. )
We are ready to communicate, ready to discuss, and answer questions. We want our project to bring as much benefit as possible to those who are passionate about equestrian sport and take care of their pets.
Again, our AI is still quite young and just learning. Let's help him learn faster. For this to happen, he needs more and more information. Each bit of data that comes to him will give new food for conclusions and reflections.
It is unlikely that we now have the opportunity to distribute free sensors that allow us to collect the necessary data, but we are ready to provide the project team with free access to the phone application and access to the rider's account.
Come and we can do it together!
History of project development
There were difficulties with accommodation, and the team had to disperse to various locations. From the start of the war until May, Gilberto continued to work purely on enthusiasm. Meanwhile, Dima Oparin was developing a new version of the sensors. The new version lacked a microSD card and a charging…Read More
But all the project participants realised that the current version of the sensors and the processing system in general could not be convenient for everyone, especially as the actual acquisition of data from the sensors required certain qualifications and skills that are completely unavailable to our real users. That is…Read More
At the time of the outbreak of hostilities in Ukraine, 3 sets of sensors were manufactured. One set of sensors was in Oleg Leonidovich’s backpack, the second set of sensors was in the office, and the third set of sensors was at the stables. And when on the 24th of…Read More
Danya Gorbatenko Danya Gorbatenko, a design engineer and industrial designer, joined the project team. Thanks to his skills, Danya was able to design the enclosures of all the sensors. Dima Oparin made the first version of the sensors – he designed the electronics and wrote the…

In the first 1.5 months, the device developed by Dmitry was fitted with a simple paper clip and attached to the horse’s leash. In this way the first (so far integral) datasets were obtained, on the basis of which during the first phase AI of the first phase Gilberto learned…Read More
First device prototype Dmitry confirmed the hypothesis that it is possible to try this device. Approximately 1.5 weeks of correcting software elements, removing unnecessary functions. After about 2 weeks I already received a device, which recorded some readings of accelerometer and gyroscope on microSD. The idea…

Dmitry Oparin Oleg Dyvinets talked to Dmitry Oparin about this. It was in August 2021. Dmitry says “Yes we did.” We were making a device that we planned to mount on a GoPro camera. And this little device has a gyroscope inside, an accelerometer, GPS was…
