Tech Meets Falconry: Transforming Raptor Care

Details

Hey you! Yes, you đź‘‹

Calling all developers, IoT enthusiasts, and wildlife tech innovators!

Falconry has remained “unchanged” for centuries—until now. Meet Falconry Scale, the first smart weight-tracking system for birds of prey. We're merging cutting-edge hardware with intuitive software to help falconers manage their raptors with precision, automation, and real-time analytics.

What’s in it for you?

  • Discover how IoT and cloud-based tech are transforming a niche but passionate global community.
  • Get insights into our hardware + software integration journey, from sensors to seamless cross-platform syncing.
  • Connect with fellow devs, innovators, and falconry enthusiasts over big ideas and bold tech solutions.

Are you ready to rethink wildlife tracking? Join us and be part of the future of falconry.
