Specification

Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure relates generally to deterrent devices. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to an IOT-based deterrent system and a method thereof.
BACKGROUND
For decades, agriculture has stood as both the backbone and vulnerability of nations worldwide. In many regions, particularly in countries like India where agriculture serves as a primary source of livelihood for a significant portion of the population, farmers have grappled with persistent challenges that threaten their very sustenance. Among these challenges, the perennial menace posed by avian species, animals, and reptiles has been a longstanding issue. These creatures, while emblematic of the rich biodiversity surrounding farmlands, often wreak havoc on crops during critical stages of growth, from sowing to ripening. The depredation inflicted by birds and other animals translates into tangible economic losses, exacerbating the precarious financial situation of farmers who rely solely on their land for sustenance.
The conventional methods of crop protection have proven inadequate against the relentless onslaught of avian species and other crop-damaging creatures. Farmers have resorted to various means, from scarecrows to chemical deterrents, but these measures often fall short of providing comprehensive and sustainable solutions. As a result, the agricultural sector continues to grapple with significant losses, jeopardizing the livelihoods of millions and impeding efforts to achieve food security and economic prosperity. The persistent struggle against wildlife incursions has underscored the urgent need for innovative, technology-driven interventions capable of safeguarding crops effectively while promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
Thus, there is a need for a system, an apparatus, and a method capable of providing protection against such intruders that harm the crops or seeds, which demands a need for improvised technical solution that overcomes the aforementioned problems.

sensing (302), by way of a plurality of sensors (114) of an input unit (108), signals representing presence of a plurality of intruders, wherein the plurality of intruders comprising at least one of, (i) a plurality of insects, (ii) a plurality of reptiles, (iii) a plurality of birds, and (iv) a plurality of animals in a region;
capturing (304), by way of a plurality of imaging devices (116) of the input unit (108), a plurality of images of the region such that the plurality of sensors (114) sense signals representing presence of the plurality of intruders based on the plurality of images.
identifying (306), by way of processing circuitry (120) coupled to the input unit (108), at least one intruder of the plurality of intruders by way of one of, one or more Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques and one or more Machine Learning (ML) techniques;
determining (308), by way of the processing circuitry (120), a limiting frequency associated with the at least one intruder of the plurality of intruders;
generating (310), by way of the processing circuitry (120), an alert signal based on the limiting frequency of the at least one intruder of the plurality of intruders; and
generating (312), by way of an alert unit (112) coupled to the processing circuitry (120), a plurality of sound frequencies such that each sound frequency of the plurality of sound frequencies is generated based on the limiting frequency of the at least one intruder of the plurality of intruders.
