ARTIFICIAL intelligence (AI) may never replace judges – but products incorporating the technology may help them, and horses and riders.
Two creations on the market are aimed at improving equine training and performance; Ridesum’s AI Horse Analytics and the TeleRein C IT.
The former is designed to benefit performance and welfare, by acting as an objective measure of a horse’s head and neck position, with data fed to a smartphone app.
Karin Lindell, CEO and cofounder of Ridesum, said that by offering real-time feedback on the horse’s head position, “riders can make informed decisions that enhance both performance and welfare.”
Ms Lindell told H&H that by removing subjectivity, they are also “taking out the emotion and the uncertainty”.
“We’re not judging the rider,” she said. “This is a learning tool, designed to give riders simple, objective feedback, not to chastise or shout at anyone.
