Zusammenfassung:This research addresses one of the major problems in agriculture that farmers are currently facing: birds causing significant crop damage in agricultural fields. To reduce this damage, a person’s presence is often required in the farm field to repel the birds. To eliminate this need and automate the repellent system, the project aims to develop a bird repellent device using computer vision techniques to detect and repel birds from fields. Existing work lags behind in using effective algorithms and developing hardware. Object detection algorithms like the Haar Cascade Classifier and YOLOv8 are used; YOLOv8 is a powerful object detection algorithm, and it is chosen as the primary algorithm for its accuracy and speed in detecting birds. A hardware device is developed using a Raspberry Pi with a Pi camera and a Bluetooth speaker. Upon detecting birds in the farm fields through the Pi camera, distress calls are produced through the Bluetooth speakers to repel the birds.
