LIVEgg Launches CrystalEgg, The World's First Embryo Monitoring System

CrystalEgg, which enables real-time visibility of embryo well-being in a non-invasive manner, will be presented at the IPPE tradeshow in Atlanta, Georgia. LIVEgg solutions improve efficiency and quality, and increase profitability

Atlanta, GA /PRNewswire/ -- LIVEgg, a developer of cutting-edge digital technologies for the poultry industry, has launched CrystalEgg, the world's first embryo monitor capable of directly identifying the embryo's physiological signals and providing real-time information about the embryo's well-being.

The non-invasive system will be showcased for the first time at the International IPPE Production & Processing Expo, which will take place February 12–14, 2019 in Atlanta, Georgia.

LIVEgg will present the innovative CrystalEgg at booth 9773, Hall C. Vertical integrators and hatchery owners are invited to live demos to learn how CrystalEgg can significantly improve efficiency and yield higher numbers of better-quality chicks from the same number of eggs.

The pioneering system will also be presented at IPPE as part of the Tech Talks sessions. Visitors are invited to the presentation by LIVEgg CEO Alon Blum, which will be held on Wednesday, February 13 at 13:50 in Hall C9123.

From its location inside the incubator, CrystalEgg identifies the physiological signals of the embryo and the environmental conditions of the incubator through non-invasive methods. The signals are transmitted, analyzed and presented via CrystalEgg application.

It senses, in real-time, the presence of a living embryo in the egg, providing alerts if it is dead or the egg is infertile. CrystalEgg can detect the developmental stage, providing critical information for maximum operation of the incubation.

LIVEgg sensors collect physiological parameters from the embryo and apply advanced algorithms to analyze it, thus providing highly accurate real-time data on the embryo's stage and condition. By utilizing LIVEgg technology, hatcheries can achieve better hatchability and chick quality

"Even the top-scale incubators can only monitor the environmental factors within the incubator, but using environmental factors only limits the ability to take care of the embryos' well-being during the hatching cycle," said LIVEgg's Blum. "Until now, the developmental stage and the embryo's condition during a hatching cycle was a real enigma."

"CrystalEgg offers hatchery managers, owners and integrators crystal clear observation of the embryo, providing improved control and a totally new set of information unavailable to date," he added.

While hatching lasts 21 days, CrystalEgg can provide, on the seventh day, accurate information on expected hatching, mortality, infertility and many other parameters. The system is already in use in Africa, Europe and Israel, and has managed to improve hatching rates in even highly efficient hatcheries by some 3–4 percent.
