digital cage cards
to replace paper cage cards
Digital Cage Cards seamlessly connected to your animal data.
PicoTeam combines Digital Cage Cards with a Mobile App that integrates with existing animal management systems or data sources such as Excel, extending their functionality. Together, they support a paper-free animal lab and efficient monitoring and management of essential animal information.
Digital cage cards will show the latest information received, even if it is out of battery, as the ePaper technology only uses power when updating the display and does not use power retaining the display-image
- Paperless animal facilities
- Reduce labor and manual processes
- Up to date information
- Multiple content layout templates
digital cage cards
The use of ePaper technology in digital cage cards results in an ultra-low power display. Cards can be updated through fast, robust, fault-tolerant wireless communication. The system allows for flexible design of multiple cage cards layouts populated with animal data

Prioritizing Animal Welfare and Safety
The PicoTeam digital cage card system is built on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, which is widely recognized for its safety in environments involving both animals and humans.
- Low Transmission Power: BLE’s energy-efficient communication reduces any risk of biological effects
- No Impact on Animal Welfare: BLE signals do not disturb animal behavior, daily activity patterns, or biological rhythms
- Safe for Staff and Visitors: Everyday BLE exposure is considered safe for staff and visitors in animal facilities
- Minimal Environmental Interference: BLE minimizes interference with sensitive research equipment.
- Secure Data Transmission: BLE encrypts transfers, protecting animal IDs and sensitive research data
Feature Summary for BLE
