Problem
Pest birds are a serious threat to farmers because they damage harvests, while manual scaring methods are inefficient and require constant labor.
Bird Repellent with Object Detection
A YOLO-based system on a RaspberryPi that repels pest birds in rice fields, equipped with a camera system and a buzzer speaker that activates automatically when birds are detected.

Solution
Developed a YOLO-based bird detection system running on a RaspberryPi, equipped with a camera system and a buzzer speaker that is triggered automatically when birds are detected in the rice field.
Impact
- Pest birds can be detected and repelled automatically without manual supervision.
- The system works in real time on an energy-efficient RaspberryPi.
- Farmers can protect their fields with a system that is practical to install on site.
