Device and method for smart, non-habituating, automatic bird deterrent system |
摘要 |
A bird deterrent system includes (i) measurement of bird habituation to activation of deterrent devices and (ii) reduction of habituation through increased selectivity in activating deterrents only for birds posing a threat to or threatened by a protected area, and in particular, those within threat altitudes. The bird deterrent system further provides (iii) analytical data in support of safety management systems, risk management, etc., and (iv) integrated, wide-area radar coverage with multiple virtual intrusion zones providing multiple lines of defense around and over very large protected areas. |

1. A real-time, automated, bird deterrent system comprising: a) a surveillance subsystem including at least one surveillance sensor apparatus adapted for detecting birds and issuing a threat alert when detected birds pose a threat to or are subject to a threat from a protected area; b) a deterrent subsystem including at least one deterrent apparatus adapted for harassing detected birds in response to said threat; c) a deterrent activation processor, operatively connected to said surveillance subsystem, that receives said threat alert from said surveillance subsystem, said deterrent activation processor being operatively connected to said deterrent subsystem for selecting and activating a subset of deterrent apparatuses of said deterrent subsystem in response to said threat alert; and d) an information subsystem operatively connected to said surveillance subsystem and said deterrent activation processor for collecting information on bird trajectories or tracks, threat alerts, and deterrent activations and based on the collected information executing at least one activity taken from the group consisting of (i) measuring system effectiveness and avian habituation; (ii) altering system configuration to reduce habituation; (iii) interfacing with system operators; and (iv) calculating a set of data analytics. |
