ZELP Sense is a low-cost, wearable device that continuously measures methane and carbon dioxide emissions from individual cows, giving farmers and researchers an affordable alternative to lab-based measurement. As a genuinely new device, the brief called for imagery credible enough to sit in both a product catalogue and a working farm.

​

We rendered Zelp Sense in a warm, minimal environment that let the design speak for itself, while making sure it never looked showroom-fresh. Since the device is worn by cattle in real agricultural conditions, we treated the surface with the wear and light damage it would naturally pick up in the field. Alongside the standalone renders, we composited the prototype onto the animal and retouched the imagery to bring the CGI and photography together seamlessly.
