Zusammenfassung:SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING ROBOTS IN CONJUNCTION WITH A ROTARY MILKING PLATFORM In certain embodiments, a system includes a first robotic device positioned proximate to a first milking stall of a rotary milking platform. The rotary milking platform has a plurality of milking stalls. The first robotic device is operable to 5 prepare the teats of a first dairy livestock located in the first milking stall. The system also includes a second robotic device positioned proximate to a second milking stall of the rotary milking platform. The second robotic device is operable to attach a first milking device to the teats of a second dairy livestock located in the second milking stall. The system also includes a third robotic device proximate to a 10 third milking stall of the rotary milking platform. The third robotic device is operable to attach a second milking device to the teats of a third dairy livestock located in the third milking stall. The system also includes a fourth robotic device positioned proximate to a fourth milking stall of the rotary milking platform. The fourth robotic device is operable to apply a sanitizing agent to the teats of a fourth 15 dairy livestock located in the fourth milking stall subsequent to a removal of a third milking device from the teats of the fourth dairy livestock.
