Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The subject matter in general relates to a system to deter animals from trespassing on private property. More particularly, the subject matter relates to a multi-level deterrence system to deter animals from a property, without harming the animals.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Unless otherwise indicated herein, the materials described in this section are not prior art in this application and are not admitted to being prior art by inclusion in this section.
[0003] Human settlements and agricultural lands have long coexisted with various forms of wildlife. While sharing the environment with wildlife can be harmonious, there are situations where it becomes necessary to deter animals from encroaching upon human lands without resorting to harmful measures.
[0004] Animals trespassing on farm fields is a significant concern for farmers. Deers, rabbits, wild boars, birds, monkeys, and elephants, among other animals are usual suspects for trampling on plants, eating crops, and even digging up the soil. Farmers suffer crop losses resulting in financial losses due to such animal activities on farms. While a large farmer may absorb such losses to a certain extent, for small and marginal farmers this is a serious concern as their livelihood is entirely dependent on farming.
[0005] Farmers, conventionally, rely on setting up physical barriers or utilizing scare tactics like making sounds, visual deterrents, chemical deterrents and sometimes employing guard animals like dogs to deter wildlife. Constructing a strong concrete barrier along the perimeter of the farm is not a financially viable option for farmers. In contrast, a barbed wire fence is a cost-effective alternative, but it cannot stop small animals like monkeys, wild boars, etc. from trespassing. Chemical deterrents are opted for in certain cases as an immediate remedy to deter animals. While effective in the short term, chemical deterrents, tend to harm animals and at times even lead to the death of animals. Such practices cause significant damage to farm biodiversity, the health and well-being of farmers and soil degradation.
[0006] In one conventional technique, infrared sensors are used to deter animals from farmlands, where the sensors are used to detect animal intrusion and raise an alarm. Another technique uses solar-powered or electric fencing mechanisms, alongside pre-recorded vocalizations as a means of discouraging animal encroachment. While effective initially, these deterrents frequently prove inadequate over time, as targeted animals adapt their behaviour and develop strategies to evade or bypass these conventional systems. Further, it is observed that all animals based on their intelligence adapt to such systems sooner or later – making these systems redundant. Animals such as elephants and primates exhibit the intelligence to breach such deterrence systems within a month.
[0007] In view of the foregoing discussion, there is a need for an improved technique to deter animals from trespassing on agricultural lands and other private properties. The improved technique while achieving its purpose must factor in animal safety and biodiversity and be affordable for small and marginal farmers.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0008] Accordingly, to fulfil the need for an improved technique to deter animals from trespassing on property a multi-level deterrence system to deter animals is provided.

[0034] Figure 2 illustrates an overview of an exemplary implementation of a multi-level deterrence system (100) to deter animals from trespassing on private property (200), in accordance with an embodiment. Referring to Figure 2, the private property (200) includes the multi-level deterrence system (100). The first deterrent level (110) includes a lighting module (101) along the perimeter of the private property (200) to act as a first level of defence. The second deterrent level (120) includes human replicas (102) to act as a second level of defence on the private property (200). The third deterrent level (130) includes carbide guns (103) to act as a third level of defence on the private property (200).
[0035] In an embodiment, the lighting modules (101), the human replicas (102) and the carbide guns (103), work in collaboration to deter animals from trespassing on private property. The sensors (140) may be deployed at various locations on the private property (200). The controller (150) is operably connected to the lighting module (101), human replicas (102) and carbide guns (103).
[0036] In an embodiment, the lighting modules (101), the human replicas (102) and the carbide guns (103) may be interchangeably deployed at the first deterrent level (110), the second deterrent level (120) and the third deterrent level (130).
[0037] The lighting module (101), human replicas (102) and carbide guns (103) are deployed at different time stamps based on the animal activity on and around the private property (200). The time stamps for deploying the lighting module (101), human replicas (102) and carbide guns (103) are determined by the controller (150) based on the data received from the sensors (140).
[0038] In an embodiment, the sensors (140) are deployed at various locations of a property (200). Further, the sensors (140) are configured to send data, to the controller (150), in relation to animal activity such as the movements of animals, number of animals, frequency of breach, location of the breach, time of the breach, size of animals, and the type of animals, among other details related to the intruding animal. The controller (150) is configured to determine the time stamps for deploying the first deterrent level (110), the second deterrent level (120) and the third deterrent level (130) depending on the data received from the sensors (140). The controller (150) alerts the multi-level deterrence system (100) to deploy the first level of defence upon breach of the multi-level deterrence system (100) depending upon the data received from the sensors (140). For example, the controller (150) receives data, from sensors (140), and detect a breach on the south side of the property (200). Further, the controller (150) may raise an alert to deploy the first deterrent level (110) at the south side of the property (200).
[0039] In an embodiment, the alert may be sent to a cloud server or the memory module of the controller (150). Further, the cloud server or the memory module of the controller (150) may send the alert to a user device or the display module of the controller (150). The user device may be an electronic communication device operated by the user of the multi-level deterrence system (100).
[0040] In an embodiment, the controller (150) is configured to determine the time stamps for deploying the first deterrent level (110), the second deterrent level (120) and the third deterrent level (130) depending on the data received from the sensors (140) and a predetermined threshold value. The predetermined threshold value may be determined by the user of the multi-level deterrence system (100). The predetermined threshold value may be set by factoring in the frequency of breach, the time interval between the successive breaches, number of animals, and type of animals. For example, the controller (150) may detect three animals breaching the first deterrent level (110) on one or more locations on the property (200). Further, if the predetermined threshold value is set to 3 breaches within a given time interval for the first deterrent level (110), the controller (150) may raise an alert to deploy the next level of defence i.e. the second deterrent level (120).
[0041] In an embodiment, additional lighting modules (101), human replicas (102) and carbide guns (103) may be deployed on the property (200) depending on the data provided by the controller (150). For example, if the controller (150) provides data indicating that a group of animals breach the multi-level deterrence system (100) from only the north direction then, accordingly the controller (150) may alert the multi-level deterrence system (100) to deploy the next level of defence upon breach of the previous level of defence of the multi-level deterrence system (100) by deploying additional lighting modules (101), human replicas (102) and/or carbide guns (103) in the north of the property.
[0042] In another embodiment, the controller (150) may identify the type of animal, using the sensors deployed at different locations on the property in the multi-level deterrence system (100). Furthermore, the controller (150) may be trained with relevant data. The relevant data may include but is not limited to, images of various animals and size information of different animals. The controller (150) may use the relevant data to identify the type of animal or intruder. In an embodiment, the relevant data may be stored in a cloud server or the memory module of the controller (150). Further, the controller (150) may be configured to access the cloud server or the memory module to access the relevant data stored.
[0043] In an embodiment, the multi-level deterrence system (100) may execute a pre-determined sequence from a list of deterring sequences in accordance with the detected type of animal. The controller (150) may include the list of deterring sequences. Further, the list of sequences may trigger, at least one of, the lighting modules (101) or the carbide guns (103). Furthermore, the list of deterring sequences may be inputted manually, by the user/operator of the multi-level deterrence system (100). The pre-determined deterring sequences may be selected based on the inputs provided by the sensors deployed at different locations in the multi-level deterrence system (100). Additionally, the pre-determined deterring sequences may be selected depending on the identified type of animal, by the controller (150).
[0044] In another embodiment, the controller (150) may be configured to differentiate between intruders and non-intruders based on information stored in the memory module of the controller (150). For example, the controller (150) may determine a human being on the property as a non-intruder and may not trigger a deterring sequence from the list of deterring sequences.
[0045] Referring to Figure 3, a lighting module (101) of the multi-level deterrence system (100) is illustrated in accordance with an exemplary embodiment. The system may comprise one or more lighting modules (101) to deter animals from trespassing on private property. In a non-limiting embodiment of the present disclosure, the lighting modules (101) may comprise LEDs (111), one or more battery modules and solar photovoltaic (PV) panels (112). The excess solar energy from the solar PV panels (112) may be stored in the battery modules to power the LEDs (111) during the night.
[0046] In a non-limiting implementation of the present embodiment, one or more lighting modules (101) may automatically turn on after sunset and turn off after sunrise. In an embodiment, the lighting modules (101) may be equipped with power backup.
[0047] In an embodiment, the controller (150) provides alert for installing the lighting module (101) at different heights and distances depending on identified type of animal. For example, in the case of a boar, the height for deployment may be 1 to 1.5 feet and the distance may be 20 meters between one or more lighting modules (101), whereas in the case of an elephant, the height for deployment may be 7.5 to 8 feet and the distance may be 10 meters between one or more lighting modules (101).
[0048] Referring to Figure 2, the human replica (102) may be a simple strawman, a replica of a man or an animal, or a virtual image projected using an electronic device to deter animals from trespassing on private property. In an embodiment, the human replica (102) may be painted with fluorescent paint to glow in the dark. In an embodiment, the human replica (102) may be configured to move to replicate human or animal action. The controller (150) may control the movement of the human replicas (102) in real time based on the data received from the sensors.
[0049] Now referring to Figure 4, a carbide gun (103) of the multi-level deterrence system (100) is illustrated, in accordance with an exemplary embodiment. The carbide gun (103) may comprise a gas cylinder (131), configured to intake calcium carbide and water. The mixture of calcium carbide and water produces a flammable gas acetylene (C2H2) and calcium hydroxide (slaked lime). The gas cylinder (131) may require 50 grams of calcium carbide, to produce around 30 sound shots. Sound shots as referred to in this specification, may be defined as sounds similar to a gun firing. The carbide gun (103) produces a sound similar to a gun firing a shot, due to the flammable nature of the mixture of calcium carbide and water.
[0050] The carbide gun (103) may further comprise a battery (132), controller (150), pressure gauge (134), pressure sensor (135), a plurality of valves (136), coupling pipes, a blower (137), and a sound blaster (138) to produce high-decibel sound in order to deter animals from trespassing on private property. The carbide gun (103) may further comprise a spark plug to actuate the sound by generating a spark inside the sound blaster (138). The carbide gun (103) may comprise a motion sensor (139) configured to actuate the carbide gun (103) when an animal is detected by the motion sensor (139). The carbide gun (103) may comprise coupling conduits to connect components of the carbide gun (103). In an embodiment, the battery (132) may include, but is not limited to, a dry lead acid battery and a lithium-ion battery.
[0051] In an embodiment, the carbide gun (103) may have a plurality of operation modes. The plurality of operation modes may include a fixed frequency-based firing mode and a motion sensor-based firing mode. In fixed frequency-based firing mode, the controller (150) fires the sound shots at fixed time intervals. In the motion sensor-based firing mode the controller (150) fires sound shots after detecting the movement of animals on the property based on the data received from the motion sensor (139).
[0052] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the working of the carbide gun (103) in fixed frequency-based firing mode is explained. The controller (150) actuates a valve, at the outlet of the gas cylinder (131), from the plurality of valves (136) configured to allow the mixture of calcium carbide and water to flow to the sound blaster (138). The controller (150) closes the valve, at the outlet of the gas cylinder (131), from the plurality of valves (136) once the pressure inside the gas cylinder (131) reduces by a predetermined value. This pressure change may be detected using the pressure gauge (134) and the pressure sensor (135). The mixture of carbide and water reacts with oxygen inside the sound blaster (138) for a predetermined time.
[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the predetermined value of pressure reduction inside the gas cylinder (131) may be 0.08 kg/cm2. The controller (150) may close the valve, at the outlet of the gas cylinder (131), from the plurality of valves (136) once the pressure inside the gas cylinder (131) reduces by 0.08 kg/cm2. In an exemplary embodiment, the predetermined time for which the mixture of carbide and water reacts with oxygen inside the sound blaster (138) may be approximately 10 seconds.
[0054] Further, the controller (150) actuates the spark plug inside the sound blaster (138) to fire a sound shot. After the shot is fired, the controller (150) actuates the blower (137) for a predetermined time. The blower (137) is connected to the sound blaster (138) via coupling conduits. Further, when the blower (137) is actuated, fresh atmospheric air is pushed inside the sound blaster (138) and residual gas inside the sound blaster (138) is pushed out into the atmosphere.
[0055] In an embodiment, the predetermined time, for which the controller (150) may actuate the blower (137), may be approximately 40 seconds. In an exemplary embodiment, after the shot is fired by the sound blaster (138), the controller (150) may actuate the blower (137) for approximately 40 seconds.
[0056] Once the blower (137) is turned off, the above procedure is repeated to fire the subsequent sound shot. In the fixed frequency-based firing mode, the controller (150) may be set to actuate the carbide gun (103) at fixed time intervals. The time intervals may be determined by the user. Otherwise, the controller (150) may have a pre-installed value of the fixed time interval.
[0057] In another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the working of the carbide gun (103) in motion sensor-based firing mode is explained. The controller (150) actuates a valve, at the outlet of the gas cylinder (131), from the plurality of valves (136) configured to allow the mixture of calcium carbide and water to flow to the sound blaster (138). The controller (150) closes the valve, at the outlet of the gas cylinder (131), from the plurality of valves (136) once the pressure inside the gas cylinder (131) reduces by a predetermined value. This pressure change may be detected using the pressure sensor (135). The mixture of carbide and water reacts with oxygen inside the sound blaster (138) for approximately a predetermined time.
[0058] Further, the controller (150) actuates the spark plug inside the sound blaster (138) to fire a sound shot. Immediately after the shot is fired, the controller (150) actuates the blower (137) for a predetermined time. The blower (137) is connected to the sound blaster (138) via coupling conduits. Furthermore, when the blower (137) is actuated, fresh atmospheric air is pushed inside the sound blaster (138) and residual gas inside the sound blaster (138) is pushed out into the atmosphere.
[0059] Once the blower (137) is turned off, the above procedure is repeated to fire the subsequent sound shot. In the motion sensor-based firing mode, the controller (150) may be set to actuate the carbide gun (103) when motion is detected by the motion sensor (139). The carbide gun (103) may fire two consequent sound shots whenever the motion sensor (139) detects motion.
[0060] The presently disclosed system (100) to deter animals from trespassing on private property has the various advantageous functionalities on the conventional art. The present invention deters animals from trespassing on private property, without harming the animals. Further, the present invention is difficult to adapt by the animals as the present system is deployed as three different levels at three different time intervals. Furthermore, the present invention is easy to install and affordable for small and marginal farmers.
