A Robust Distress Sound-Based Bird Deterrent System For Rice Farming In Uganda. This project tackles the challenge of bird damage in Ugandan rice fields. It designs and builds a low-cost, automated bird deterrent system that utilizes suitable distress calls to effectively scare them away. Project Title: A Robust Distress Sound-Based Bird Deterrent System For Rice Farming In Uganda Version: 1.0 Date: 27/03/2024 Description: This Arduino project detects bird motion or vocalization using a PIR sensor and a microphone. It employs Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis to identify the type of bird based on its vocalization frequency. If a known bird is detected, distress sounds specific/suitable to that bird are played to deter it from the area. Components: - Arduino Mega 2560 - PIR Sensor - Microphone - DFPlayer Mini MP3 Module - LCD Display Libraries Used: - arduinoFFT - SoftwareSerial - DFRobotDFPlayerMini - LiquidCrystal_I2C Author: Mukalazi Ivan & Naikazi Fauzia Majid Affiliation: Makerere University Supervisor: Mr Frank Ssemakula Contact: mukalaziivan4@gmail.com License: This code is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0.
