Cows VR goggles could boost milk production 

[영어본문내용]

A dairy farmer from Moscow has finally come up with the use for VR headsets, putting them on cows.

According to Interesting Engineering, RusMoloko dairy farm in Russia looks a bit on the futuristic side with 

dairy cows running, okay maybe not running, walking around with fitted VR goggles. 

The goggles have been specifically designed for dairy cows to see if technology can help trick the animals 

into relaxing in order to produce more milk. So, do the cows just watch movies all day? Sadly no, the headsets 

show a red focused color scheme which copies the shades of summer and is supposed to make the cow 

think it's standing in a field.

According to Moscow's Agriculture Ministry, designers created a unique VR summer field based on several 

studies showing cows are better at perceiving shades of red than blue or green. Russian officials claim the 

initial testing of the VR goggles have gone well, apparently the cows won't shut up about them.   

A spokesperson for the Agriculture Ministry said during the first test, experts recorded a decrease in anxiety 

and an increase in the overall emotional mood of the herd.  Now, we just need to see if this leads to more milk, 

either way quite a moving story. In the mean time, expect Google and Facebook to think of ways to start 

showing these cows ultra annoying personalized ads.
