[0044] The specific implementation of the present invention is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0045] The present invention is further described in detail below through specific examples. The following examples are only illustrative and not restrictive, and the protection scope of the present invention cannot be limited thereto.

[0046] Figure 1A monitoring system is shown, a rodent monitoring system includes a first sensor unit 11, a second sensor unit 12, a master edge computing module and a cloud server. The first sensor unit 11 and the second sensor unit 12 are different types of sensor units. The first sensor unit 11 can be an infrared sensor or a photoelectric sensor, and the second sensor unit 12 can be a weighing sensor or a pressure sensor.

[0047] Figure 2 and Figure 3 The specific structure of the monitoring device is shown. The monitoring device 1 is provided with a control chamber 101 on the upper part and a monitoring channel 102 on the lower part. The monitoring channel 102 is penetrated. Automatic doors 103 are respectively provided at both ends of the monitoring channel 102. A first sensor unit 11 is installed at the two ends of the monitoring channel 102. A second sensor unit 12 is provided inside the monitoring channel 102. The second sensor unit 12 is arranged in the control chamber 101. A pressure plate 104 is provided on the top of the second sensor unit 12. A carrier 105 is vertically connected to both sides of the pressure plate 104. The carrier 105 is vertically arranged in the monitoring channel 102. A gap is provided between the carrier 105 and the bottom wall of the monitoring channel 102. A movable bait box 106 is provided on the carrier 105. A third sensor unit 13 and a third sensor unit 14 are provided on the top of the monitoring channel 102.

[0048] The first sensor unit 11 is configured to perform real-time detection on the monitoring channel 102. The first sensor unit 11 may be an infrared sensor, which is disposed at the entrance of the monitoring channel 102 to detect in real time whether an object enters the monitoring channel 102 and transmit data to the main control edge computing module.

[0049] The second sensor unit 12 is configured to monitor the weight data of the monitoring channel in real time; the second sensor unit 12 can be a weighing sensor, which is arranged in the monitoring channel 102, for detecting the weight change of the monitoring channel 102 in real time and transmitting the data to the main control edge computing module.

[0050] The master edge computing module is configured to fuse the data collected from the first sensor unit 11 and the second sensor unit 12, and based on this, determine whether the object in the monitoring channel is a rodent; the master edge computing module determines whether the object in the monitoring channel is a leaf, stone, mouse, hare and other rodents, snakes and other reptiles, and other types of animals based on the collected infrared sensor data and weighing sensor data.

[0051] The cloud server is configured to send control instructions to the master edge computing module, manage and configure the operating parameters of the master edge computing module, receive the data uploaded by the master edge computing module and the preliminary analysis results, perform global data management and advanced analysis, and send the results or new control instructions back to the master edge computing module;

[0052] The master edge computing module is connected to the cloud server via a wireless communication circuit or a Beidou positioning circuit.

[0053] The wireless communication circuit is based on the NB-IoT communication mode. Through the NB-IoT base station and application server, a "grid" management mode is adopted to realize the monitoring and management of the big data cloud platform for monitoring data and geographic information. For example, the wireless communication circuit adopts the NB86-G low-power multi-band NB-IoT wireless communication module, which is based on the HiSilicon Boudica150 chipset and meets the needs of most operators in the world. The NB-IoT wireless communication mode is adopted to establish a network connection with the user end through the NB-IoT base station and application server to provide data transmission services for monitoring data and geographic information.

[0054] Beidou circuit can start short message communication mode, taking advantage of the characteristics of Beidou system with both positioning and communication functions, without the support of other communication systems, using Beidou global short message communication mode, and sending relevant data back through satellite to achieve uninterrupted data monitoring. For example, Beidou positioning circuit 7 uses Beidou RDSS four-in-one module HS201, with a receiving sensitivity of -127dBm.

[0055] Positioning and communication success rate is greater than 95%

[0056] Specifically, the main control edge computing module is also configured such that if the monitoring value of the monitoring channel collected by the first sensor unit 11 at the current moment exceeds the set first threshold, it is judged that an object has invaded the monitoring channel, and then the main control edge computing module 3 sends a closing control instruction to the automatic door in real time to close the automatic door.

[0057] Compare the monitoring value of the monitoring channel at the current moment with the set first threshold, obtain the comparison result, and obtain the automatic door closing instruction according to whether the comparison result meets the preset requirements. The monitoring value is the first sensor unit value collected at the monitoring channel at the current moment, and the first threshold is a pre-set reference value.

[0058] Specifically, the main control edge computing module is also configured to send a door closing command when the monitoring value of the monitoring channel collected by the first sensor unit 11 at the current moment exceeds a set first threshold, and the weight value collected by the second sensor unit 12 is greater than a set second threshold.

[0060] Specifically, the main control edge computing module is also configured that when the monitoring value of the monitoring channel collected by the first sensor unit 11 at the current moment exceeds the set first threshold, and the weight value collected by the second sensor unit 12 is greater than the set second threshold, after sending the door closing command, if the weight value of the second sensor is continuously monitored to be less than the second threshold, then a door opening command is sent, and it is judged that the object has escaped. At the same time, the second sensor unit 12 collects the remaining weight of the bait box and sends the remaining weight data to the main control edge computing module, the main control edge computing module preliminarily processes and analyzes it, and sends the results and data or instructions that need further processing to the cloud server.

[0061] Specifically, it also includes a third sensor unit 13, which can be a laser ranging sensor, an infrared ranging sensor, an ultrasonic ranging sensor, and a micron radar distance sensor. The third sensor unit 13 is configured to collect length data of objects entering the monitoring channel, and send the object length data to the main control edge computing module. The main control edge computing module preliminarily processes and analyzes the data, and sends the results and data or instructions that need further processing to the cloud server.

[0062] Specifically, the master edge computing module is further configured to send a command to start the third sensor unit 13 if the weight value of the second sensor unit 12 is continuously monitored to be greater than the second threshold value when the weight information of the second sensor unit 12 received is greater than the set second threshold value and a door closing command is sent, and the third sensor unit 13 measures the length of the object. When the length measurement of the object is completed, a door opening command is sent, and a third sensor closing command is sent at the same time;

[0063] And / or when the received weight information of the second sensor unit 12 is greater than the set second threshold and a door closing command is sent, if the weight value of the second sensor is continuously monitored to be less than the second threshold, a door opening command is sent, and the target object is judged to have escaped. At the same time, the second sensor unit 12 collects the remaining weight of the bait box and sends the remaining weight data to the main control edge computing module, which preliminarily processes and analyzes it and sends the results and data or instructions that need further processing to the cloud server.

[0064] When monitoring mice, the first sensor unit 11 and the second sensor unit 12 are cross-verified, and by setting the second threshold, the triggering situation of foreign body interference is excluded, thereby further improving the accuracy.

[0065] The second sensor unit determines whether the object entering is a mouse by judging the weight of the object. If the weight is obviously higher than that of a mouse, it can be automatically released.

[0066] Specifically, it also includes a fourth sensor unit 14, which can be an optical image sensor. The fourth sensor unit 14 is configured to collect image data of objects entering the monitoring channel and send the object image data to the main control edge computing module. The main control edge computing module preliminarily processes and analyzes the data and sends the results and data or instructions that need further processing to the cloud server.

[0067] Specifically, the master edge computing module is further configured to: when the weight information of the second sensor unit 12 received is greater than the set second threshold value and a door closing command is sent, if the weight value of the second sensor unit is continuously monitored to be greater than the second threshold value, send a command to start the fourth sensor, the fourth sensor unit collects images of the target object, and simultaneously measures the weight of the object, and when the image collection of the target object is completed, send a door opening command and send a command to close the fourth sensor unit at the same time;

[0068] And / or when the received weight information of the second sensor unit 12 is greater than the set second threshold value and a door closing command is sent, if the weight value of the second sensor unit is continuously monitored to be less than the second threshold value, a door opening command is sent, and the target object is judged to have escaped. At the same time, the second sensor unit 12 collects the remaining weight of the bait box and sends the remaining weight data to the main control edge computing module, which preliminarily processes and analyzes it and sends the results and data or instructions that need further processing to the cloud server.

[0069] Specifically, it also includes a coprocessor module, and the coprocessor module is configured to: pre-process the image information collected by the fourth sensor unit 14;

[0070] The master edge computing unit is connected to the coprocessor unit by signal, and is used to perform non-uniform correction on the image information according to the deep learning algorithm; smooth the corrected image using the filtering algorithm; separate the target from the background information in the smoothed image according to the background difference method, and detect the moving target; and visually track the moving target using the tracking algorithm;

[0071] The preprocessing includes graying, temperature conversion, filtering and noise reduction of the image information collected by the infrared camera.

[0072] A rodent monitoring method comprises the following steps:

[0073] The first sensor unit 11 detects the target environment in real time. When the infrared radiation information of the target environment detected by the first sensor unit 11 is greater than the set first threshold, it is determined that an object has invaded the target environment; when the weight information fed back by the second sensor unit 12 is greater than the set second threshold, a door closing command is sent, and the electric door closes within 50 milliseconds; when the weight information fed back by the second sensor unit 12 is less than the set second threshold, no door closing command is sent, and the electric door always remains in the open state;

[0074] After the electric door is closed, if the second sensor unit 12 continuously feeds back weight information greater than the second threshold, the main control edge computing module sends an instruction to start the third sensor unit 13 and / or the fourth sensor unit 14 to measure the length and / or capture images of the object entering, and synchronously collect the weight of the object. After the length information, image information and weight information are collected, the main control edge computing module sends a door opening instruction, and the electric door opens. At the same time, the main control edge computing module sends an instruction to close the third sensor unit 13 and / or the fourth sensor unit 14. When the weight information of the second sensor 12 is less than the set second threshold, it is judged that the object has left, and the remaining weight of the bait in the bait box is synchronously collected; if the second sensor 12 continuously feeds back weight information less than the second threshold, it is judged that the object has escaped, and the main control edge computing module sends a door opening instruction, and the automatic door opens;

[0075] The cloud server analyzes and processes the data sent by the master edge computing module, and classifies them into four categories: invalid trigger, foreign object trigger, non-target object, and target trigger;

[0076] If it is determined to be an invalid trigger, the invalid trigger data will be directly deleted;

[0077] If it is determined to be triggered by foreign objects and non-target objects, the data triggered by foreign objects and non-target objects are analyzed and processed and then classified and stored;

10. A method for monitoring rodents, characterized in that Using the rodent monitoring system according to any one of claims 1 to 9 comprises the following steps: The first sensor unit (11) detects the target environment in real time. When the infrared radiation information of the target environment detected by the first sensor unit (11) is greater than a set first threshold, it is determined that an object has invaded the target environment. When the weight information fed back by the second sensor unit (12) is greater than a set second threshold, a door closing command is sent, and the electric door closes within 50 milliseconds. When the weight information fed back by the second sensor unit (12) is less than the set second threshold, no door closing command is sent, and the electric door always remains in an open state. When the electric door is closed, if the second sensor unit (12) continuously feeds back weight information greater than a second threshold, the main control edge computing module sends an instruction to start the third sensor unit (13) and / or the fourth sensor unit (14), measures the length and / or collects images of the object entering, and simultaneously collects the weight of the object; after the length information, image information, and weight information are collected, the main control edge computing module sends a door opening instruction, and the electric door opens; at the same time, the main control edge computing module sends an instruction to close the third sensor unit (13) and / or the fourth sensor unit (14); when the weight information of the second sensor (12) is less than a set second threshold, it is determined that the object has left, and the remaining weight of the bait in the bait box is collected synchronously; if the second sensor (12) continuously feeds back weight information less than the second threshold, it is determined that the object has escaped, and the main control edge computing module sends a door opening instruction, and the automatic door opens; The cloud server analyzes and processes the data sent by the master edge computing module, and classifies them into four categories: invalid trigger, foreign object trigger, non-target object, and target trigger; If it is determined to be an invalid trigger, the invalid trigger data will be directly deleted; If it is determined to be triggered by foreign objects and non-target objects, the data triggered by foreign objects and non-target objects are analyzed and processed and then classified and stored; If it is determined to be a target trigger, the data and images of the entry and exit trajectory, weight, body length, and food theft weight generated by the target trigger will be analyzed and processed again to generate relevant charts of daily activity frequency, activity intensity, weight, body length, food theft amount, quantity, and images and store them in the big database.
