Abstract : A failure in detecting ‘estrus’ is one of the factors that can cause reproductive problems and low pregnancy rates in cattle groups. Generally, detecting estrus can be done by looking at cattle behavior in vulva condition. Beside that, there are some cows that their sub estrus or silent heat do not really show their estrus symptoms physically, such as the vulva swells, flushes and the clear liquid comes out by hanging from the vulva or seen at the base of the tail. Based on these conditions, it can be clearly seen that not all breeders are able to detect animal estrus properly. From the aforementioned problem, it was proposed a system that can detect ‘estrus’ of cattle based on the cattle’s movements. The system was built by using Arduino based accelerometer that hopely can detect estrus by sending the warning system to the breeder. The results of system performance testing using percentile approach compared to expert results obtained an accuracy of 77.77%. Keywords : Arduino, Accelerometer, Estrus, Bali Cattle
