1. An artificial intelligence system for use in a poultry house, comprising:
a control server;
a network gateway disposed in the poultry house and equipped with a wireless communication capability;
a movable sensor module disposed in the poultry house, wherein said movable sensor module is movable within the poultry house for obtaining a plurality of environmental parameters associated with specific locations within the poultry house; and
a sampling machine disposed in the poultry house for obtaining a sample of poultry waste on the ground of the poultry house;
wherein,
said movable sensor module is in communication with said network gateway to transmit the environmental parameters to said network gateway, and said network gateway is configured to transmit the environmental parameters to said control server for processing the environmental parameters;
said control server is configured to partition the poultry house into a plurality of sections;
said movable sensor module is configured to obtain the environmental parameters for each of the sections;
said control server is configured to, for each of the sections, obtain a representative parameter based on at least the environmental parameters obtained by said movable sensor module for the section;
said control server is configured to assign one of a plurality of states to each of the sections, the plurality of states including at least a normal state and an abnormal state; and
said control server is configured to sort the representative parameters for the sections, to assign a preset number of the sections having a highest representative parameter among all of the sections with the abnormal state, and to assign remaining ones of the sections with the normal state.
