The objective of this project is to design and develop an automatic system to detect bear encroachment and provide stimuli that will scare them away upon detection. This will be done through the use of a camera that runs a computer vision model to detect the presence of a bear. Once detected, it will output environmental stimuli of loud noise and bright light in order to attempt to deter the bear from continued approach.

Our team collaborated with Electrical and Computer Engineering 21 on this project.
