SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CROP PROTECTION FROM ANIMALS USING SMART SENSORS FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a crop protection system and method, technology for protecting crops from wild animals, and more particularly, to improve detection accuracy by combining signals detected from various sensors, and to quickly respond to follow-up actions through various alarms and monitoring.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication.

As human life becomes wider, the boundaries between humans and wild animals are getting closer. As a result, damage from being attacked by wild animals or damaging crops continues to increase.

For example, wild boars are increasingly coming down to farms in search of food or digging through crops. To prevent such damage from wild boars, fences are installed around crops, but there is a limit to protecting crops with simple fences. Accordingly, a method of protecting crops by installing an electric fence has been proposed, but there is a problem that not only the maintenance cost is high due to high power consumption, but also the risk of safety accidents is high.

In addition, harmful algae such as magpies are damaging facilities such as green houses to find food in mountainous areas or rural areas, and are inflicting enormous damage to fruits that must be harvested and shipped without any scratches. In order to prevent damage from such harmful algae, a method such as installing a wire net is effective, but the cost burden is large for small farmers. Occurs.

As such, various measures have been proposed to effectively reduce damage to crops by various wild animals, but the cost aspect is acting as the biggest problem.

On the other hand, since it is difficult to counter various wild animals with manpower from time to time, various detection systems are commercially available. The advantage of these technologies is that it is possible to protect crops unattended.

However, there are several disadvantages to this sensing system. For example, if there is only a repelling function that uses sound, ultrasound, and lighting without a sensing function, residents around the crops suffer inconvenience. In addition, when only one sensor is used, there is a problem that the probability of malfunction is increased and detection accuracy is deteriorated. In addition, in the case of technologies in which the use of fences is inevitable, not only the installation cost increases, but also various inconveniences in management are followed. In addition, when the invasion by wild animals occurs, there is a problem that there is difficulty in follow-up measures because a technology capable of giving special information to the user is not included if the eradication is not properly combated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of embodiments of the present invention. It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that embodiments of the present invention may be practiced without some of these specific details.

The following is a detailed description of embodiments of the disclosure depicted in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments are in such detail as to clearly communicate the disclosure. However, the amount of detail offered is not intended to limit the anticipated variations of embodiments; on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the present disclosure as defined by the appended claims.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to Figure 1, the crop protection system of the present invention, the outer terminal (1) for generating a detection signal in response to the intrusion of wild animals by installing on the outside of the cropland to be protected, transmission from the outer terminal (1) It includes a server 2 that determines whether to generate an alarm signal by combining the internal detection signal generated through self-monitoring together with the analysis of the detected detection signal, and stores the captured image through self monitoring.

A system for protecting crops from animals comprises: an outer terminal (1) installed outside the cropland to be protected that includes a light emitting unit (11), a light receiving unit (12), a microcomputer (13), a communication unit (14); a vibration detection (15) sensor installed on the fence and connected to the outer terminal; a server (2) configured with the outer terminal that includes a communication unit, an image capturing unit (232), a control unit (22), a monitoring unit (23), an alarm generating unit (24) and a display unit (25); characterized in that, the light-emitting unit (11) emits light that is received by the light-receiving unit (12); the microcomputer (13) generates a detection signal when no light is input to the light-receiving unit (12), and said detection signal is transmitted to the server (2) through the communication unit (14); the server (2), on receipt of the detection signal being more than a set number, generates an internal monitoring operation signal that is input to the control unit (22) which then determines whether to generate an alarm signal, and to display and process and store the captured image in response to the monitoring operation signal.

At this time, the outer terminal 1 can be arbitrarily adjusted in the installation position and number, etc., corresponding to the type of crops and the environment of the farmland.

The agricultural product protection system of the present invention configured as described above detects whether a wild animal has invaded using the outer terminal 1 installed outside the cropland. If a wild animal crosses the boundary line and enters the inside of the farmland where crops are grown, the outer terminal 1 generates a detection signal and transmits it to the server 2. Accordingly, the server 2 analyzes the detection signal and generates an alarm signal. In this case, when the server 2 analyzes the detection signal, it is preferable to determine whether to generate the final alarm signal by combining the internal detection signal detected through its own monitoring. This makes it possible to accurately determine whether wild animals are invading. On the other hand, when an alarm signal is generated by the server 2, an alarm is made using sound, ultrasonic waves, and lighting in response to the alarm signal. In addition, by tracking, displaying, and storing wild animals through self-monitoring, the user can check what kind of wild animals are approaching, and follow-up measures can be taken.

Referring to FIG. 2, the outer terminal 1 of the present invention includes a light emitting unit 11 emitting light, a light receiving unit 12 receiving light emitted from the light emitting unit 11, and a light receiving unit 12. A microcomputer 13 that generates a detection signal when no light is input, and a communication unit 14 that transmits the detection signal generated by the microcomputer 13 to a server.

Here, in the case of arable land in which a fence is installed, a vibration detection sensor 15 may be installed on the fence, and the vibration detection sensor 15 may be connected to the outer terminal 1 in a wired or wireless communication method.

Here, the light-emitting unit 11 may use a laser module, and the light-receiving unit 12 may use an illuminance sensor. That is, a plurality of outer terminals 1 consisting of a laser module and an illuminance sensing sensor are installed on the periphery of the cropland so that the laser light output from the laser module is input to the illuminance sensing sensor of the neighbouring outer terminal 1, A boundary line can be established through the continuous arrangement of 1).

In addition, the communication unit 14 may use a short-range communication module. The short-range communication module can be selectively used among Bluetooth, UWB, Zigbee, and binary CDMA.

The outer terminal 1 of the present invention configured as described above, when light is output from the light emitting unit 11 of any one outer terminal 1, is input to the light receiving unit 12 of the neighbouring outer terminal 1, and each the boundary line is established by the operation of the outer terminal 1. If the laser light is blocked by the wild animal, the microcomputer 13 generates a detection signal in response to the waveform change of the illumination sensor of the outer terminal 1 receiving the laser light, and the detection signal is a communication unit (It is transmitted to the server 2 through 14). On the other hand, when a detection signal is generated from the vibration detection sensor 15 installed on the fence, the detection signal is transmitted to the server 2 from the corresponding outer terminal 1 connected to the vibration detection sensor 15.

In this way, the laser module is fired toward the illuminance sensor of the other outer terminal 1, and detects the invasion of wild animals through a change in the value input to the illuminance sensor. On the other hand, in the case of the vibration detection sensor 15, it is installed only on a field with a fence, and detects the invasion of wild animals through vibration transmitted to the fence.

Referring to FIG. 3, the server 2 of the present invention monitors in response to a communication unit 21 receiving a detection signal transmitted from an outer terminal 1 and a set number or more detection signals transmitted from the communication unit 21. It generates an operation signal, determines whether or not to generate an alarm signal by combining the inner sensing signal generated by the monitoring operation and the sensing signal transmitted from the outer terminal 1, and displays the captured image in response to the monitoring operation. A control unit 22 that stores, a monitoring unit 23 that operates in a radar manner to generate an image signal according to photographing together with an internal detection signal, and an alarm unit that selectively drives sound, ultrasonic waves, and lighting in response to the alarm signal (24) and a display unit 25 outputting a corresponding image in response to an image signal.

Here, the monitoring unit 23 includes an ultrasonic module 231 that is driven according to a monitoring operation signal to detect the presence of wild animals using ultrasonic waves, and a camera module 232 that is driven according to the monitoring operation signal to capture an image. And, it includes a rotation driving module 233 that is driven according to the monitoring operation signal to rotate the ultrasonic module 231 and the camera module 232.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the system for protecting crops from animals, wherein the monitoring unit comprises: an ultrasonic module (231) driven according to the monitoring operation signal to detect the presence of wild animals using ultrasonic waves; a camera module (232) driven according to the monitoring operation signal to capture an image; and a rotation driving module that is driven according to the monitoring operation signal to rotate the ultrasonic module and the camera module (232).

At this time, it is preferable that the ultrasonic module 231 and the camera module 232 are integrally formed to detect and photograph in the same direction. Of course, the camera module 232 may be rotated separately in response to the internal detection signal generated by the ultrasonic module 231.

In addition, the alarm unit 24 includes a sound generating unit 241 for generating audible sound to wild animals and humans, and a lighting generating unit 242 for emitting illumination that can be seen by wild animals and humans.

On the other hand, in this embodiment, the server 2 includes the alarm unit 24 and the display unit 25, but the alarm unit 24 may be installed at any place on the arable land, preferably the outer terminal 1 It is better to be installed nearby. In addition, the display unit 25 is preferably installed in a residence where a person resides. Of course, the alarm unit 24 and the display unit 25 should be connected to the server 2 in a wired or wireless communication method.

The server 2 of the present invention configured as described above first operates the monitoring unit 23 in response to the detection signal transmitted from each outer terminal 1. Accordingly, the monitoring unit 23 rotates the ultrasonic module 231 and the camera module 232 in a radar manner to detect and photograph wild animals. At this time, if it is detected that there is an object different from the usual through the ultrasonic module 231 operated by the radar method, it is preferable to continuously track the corresponding position. Subsequently, whether or not an alarm signal is generated is determined by combining the internal detection signal detected by the monitoring unit 23 and the detection signal transmitted from each of the outer terminals 1. Meanwhile, the captured image is output through the display unit 25 and the corresponding image is stored. At this time, the movement of the wild animal is tracked in response to the internal detection signal generated by the ultrasonic module 231, and the camera module 232 can capture and store the corresponding situation. Accordingly, the user can check whether wild animals have invaded and captured images through the display unit 25 mounted on the server 2. On the other hand, when an alarm signal is generated from the server 2, the alarm unit 24 selectively drives sound, ultrasonic waves, and lighting. At this time, the sound avoided by wild animals is output through the MP3 module and speaker constituting the sound generator 241, and the 220V search light (or lighting) and the wild animals are relay modules in the lighting generator 242. It is desirable to blink the lights to avoid. Then, here will be described the crop protection method of the present invention using the system configured as described above.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the system employs a method for crop protection from animals comprising the steps of: receiving, through a receiver, the transmitted detection signal; generating, through a control unit, an internal detection signal by performing self-monitoring in response to the detection signal; analysing whether wild animals invade by combining the internal detection signal and the received detection signal; determining whether to generate an alarm signal according to the combination analysis; and outputting sound, through an alarm, when the alarm signal is generated, capturing, through an image capture device, images of the wild animals.

First of all, mutual pairing is performed by driving the outer terminal 1 and the server 2. The outer terminal 1 and the server 2 can perform short-range communication. For example, Bluetooth communication may be performed.

When light is output from the light emitting unit 11 in response to the driving of the outer terminal 1, it is input to the light receiving unit 12 of the neighbouring outer terminal 1 to establish a boundary line. Meanwhile, the vibration detection sensor 15 is installed on the fence to detect vibration. In this way, in the outer terminal 1, the light emitting unit 11, the light receiving unit 12, and the motion detection sensor detect wild animals. When a detection signal is generated from the outer terminal 1, the detection signal is transmitted to the server 2 through the communication unit 14.

On the other hand, the server 2 maintains a standby state before the detection signal is received. When the server 2 receives the detection signal, it can immediately generate an alarm signal, but in this embodiment, a monitoring operation signal is generated in response to the detection signal. The ultrasonic module 231 is driven in response to the monitoring operation signal, so that the server 2 itself detects the inside of the server 2 by a radar method.

When the internal detection signal is generated from the ultrasonic module 231, the server 2 performs analysis by combining the internal detection signal and the detection signal transmitted from the external terminal 1. Here, it is preferable to capture an image by driving the camera module 232 together with the driving of the ultrasonic module 231. At this time, the camera module 232 performs tracking photographing in response to the internal sensing signal generated from the ultrasonic module 231 driven by a radar method, or the same rotational drive is performed in response to the rotational drive of the ultrasonic module 231. I can.

On the other hand, as a result of the combination analysis of the internal detection signal and the detection signal, if it is determined that a wild animal has invaded, an alarm signal is generated.

In response to the alarm signal, the alarm unit 24 selectively drives sound, ultrasonic waves, and lighting. At this time, the sound to be avoided by wild animals is output through the MP3 module and speaker constituting the sound generating unit 241 constituting the alarm unit 24, and the lighting generating unit 242 constituting the alarm unit 24 transmits a relay It is desirable to blink 220V search lights (or lights) and lights that are avoided by wild animals as a module.

On the other hand, it is desirable to continue to operate the ultrasonic module 231 operated in a radar manner until the wild animal leaves the boundary area. When it is determined that the wild animal is out of the boundary line area, the server 2 stops driving the alarm unit 24 and returns to the standby state.

In an example, when a detection signal is generated from a set number of outer terminals 1 or more, or a detection signal is generated from a vibration sensor 15 and an outer terminal 1, the monitoring unit 23 Is driven. That is, when detection signals are generated from at least two or more sensors, the monitoring unit 23 is driven so that an accurate determination can be made. Of course, when a detection signal is generated from any one of the outer terminal 1 or the vibration detection sensor 15, the monitoring unit 23 may be driven. Accordingly, the ultrasonic module 231 is driven by a radar method.

Subsequently, the presence of a wild animal is analyzed by combining the internal detection signal generated from the ultrasonic module 231 and the detection signal transmitted from the sensor.

On the other hand, when a detection signal is generated from any one sensor, the past history is checked. In other words, even when driving one sensor, the past history of wild animals is checked. This is because when a detection signal is generated by one sensor, it is assumed that it is basically a non-intrusion state', and if the past history is frequent by checking whether the detection signal is frequently generated by one sensor in the past history. It is intended to drive the monitoring unit 23 because it may be in a substantially' intrusion state'.

When there is a result of confirming the past history and a result of confirming the wild animal by one sensor in the past history, the monitoring unit 23 is driven. On the other hand, when there is no past history confirmation result, when there is no result of confirming the wild animal by one sensor in the past history, it returns to the standby state.
