How Equestrian Facilities Use Surveillance Technology to Ensure Horses Safety & Wellness 

If you own horses or run an equestrian facility, you know how much care and attention these wonderful animals require. A large stable with many horses is a lot to manage, and you may be wondering if there’s a more convenient way to guarantee the horses are safe, fed, and have the water they need.

We’re an automation technology integrator who has worked with equestrian facilities in the Wellington, FL, area. The horse owners we’ve partnered with now use a state-of-the-art equestrian surveillance system in and around their facility with night-vision cameras and a property-wide network.

In this article, we’ll share how security and networking technology can assist in caring for your horses.

Shared Space: What You’ll Need 

High-Quality Headphones 

Maybe the rest of your family doesn’t want to hear ‘Call of Duty’ gunshots or your galloping horse in ‘Red Dead.’ If they are in the media room too, you can still privately treat yourself to incredible game audio with high-quality headphones. 

Sony manufactures premium headphones with large internal drivers and noise-canceling features. It will feel like there’s a real surround sound system in your ear! And wireless models let you move about the room freely without being yanked by a cord. 

But if you’re looking for a headset to chat with friends online, choose a noise-canceling microphone with decent voice quality that won’t pick up background sounds. Brand like Focal are often cited as the best headset brands. 

Acoustical Treatments 

If headphones aren’t your style and you’d rather play over a speaker system, ensure your audio sounds its best with acoustical treatments. Soft materials on the walls and floor will help absorb excess sound frequencies, so there aren’t echoes. We install fiberglass panels to absorb frequencies and sound diffusers to scatter noise for evenly balanced sound.  

You Need a Connection That’s Fast and Reliable. Here’s How to Get It. 

No matter if you’re playing on a PC or Xbox, shooter games, or sports, you need a strong internet connection if you’ll be playing online. Video games, especially in dazzling 4K, require a lot of bandwidth to connect with friends or stream to social platforms like Twitch. Can your home’s Wi-Fi handle it? 

In this article, we’ll share how a high-end home networking upgrade can make your gaming experience speedy and seamless. We’ll then share what visuals and sound are available for specific gaming consoles. Our Fort Lauderdale, FL clients enjoy hours of gaming in high-quality 4K with help from our network installations. 

If You’re Upgrading Your Home Theater, Do It with the Finest Equipment 

In our last installment about home theaters, we discussed how Hollywood’s new direct-to-streaming film options benefitted home cinemas. It’s not just the on-demand options that make now the best time to own a home theater. Recent technology advancements bring impeccable visuals and booming sound that previously only belonged to movie theater chains. 

Whether you already own a private cinema or are curious about a new home theater design, you won’t want to miss the latest technology available. Find out how it will enhance your Hypoluxo, FL, home entertainment below. 

Smart Technology to Help Horses & Riders Thrive 

How do you bring internet connection, surveillance cameras, outdoor TVs, and access control to a 16-acre equestrian property? With lots of learning and careful planning! 

First Priority Audio  is proud to have recently  retrofitted a residence and equestrian facility in Wellington, FL. We were tasked with adding technology to every corner of the fields, 20-stall stable, arena, viewing lounge, and home without disrupting the riders’ and horses’ activities. Our team spent two weeks on the project in Florida’s horse country, and we are thrilled with the results. 

Luxury home networks and smart security are our specialties, but an equestrian property was new to us. Here’s how we did it.
