Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bird monitoring, and particularly relates to a bird monitoring system based on multi-modal data acquisition. Background Art

[0002] Birds are important indicators of the health of the ecosystem. Their species, quantity, and distribution can reflect the biodiversity status of a region. Birds are very sensitive to environmental changes, including climate change, pollution, and habitat destruction, etc. By monitoring the changes in bird populations, environmental problems can be detected in a timely manner and corresponding measures can be taken.

[0003] For the conventional monitoring of birds, usually only cameras are set in the environment, and the collected data is relatively single. In order to make the monitoring more comprehensive, multi-modal data acquisition is required, integrating bird images, bird sound data, and environmental data. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a bird monitoring system based on multi-modal data acquisition that can collect a variety of data.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A bird monitoring system based on multi-modal data acquisition includes a camera device and a microphone. The camera device is used to capture bird images, and the microphone is used to capture bird sound information. It also includes an environmental monitoring component used in conjunction with the camera device and the microphone. The environmental monitoring component is used to monitor environmental data. The environmental monitoring component includes a temperature and humidity sensor for monitoring air temperature and humidity, a noise monitor for monitoring noise decibels, a water quality monitor for monitoring water quality, and a soil monitor for monitoring soil organic matter content.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0008] Through the camera device, microphone, temperature and humidity sensor, noise monitor, water quality monitor, and soil monitor applied in combination, multi-modal data is provided for bird monitoring, so that the collected monitoring data is more comprehensive and is more conducive to understanding the impact between the survival and habits of birds and the ecological environment.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the bird images, bird sound data, and environmental data are transmitted to a server and stored in the server. Thus, the collected information can be stored in the server, providing data support for various analyses by the server. The present utility model deploys a camera device and a microphone simultaneously, and transmits the images collected by the camera device and the sound information collected by the microphone to the server. The information collected by the microphone serves as a supplementary means for further identifying the bird species and the number of birds. Compared with identifying the bird species and quantity only through the images collected by the camera device, the identification accuracy can be improved.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the bird images, bird sound data, and environmental data are transmitted to a mobile terminal. Thus, it is convenient for the staff to view the monitoring situation.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the environmental monitoring component further includes an air quality monitor for monitoring the concentration of air pollutants. Thus, the monitoring of the environmental air quality is realized.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the environmental monitoring component further includes a meteorological monitor for monitoring wind speed, wind direction, and rainfall. Thus, the monitoring of environmental wind speed, wind direction, and rainfall is realized.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the camera device includes a rotating mechanism and a camera. The rotating mechanism drives the camera to rotate to the corresponding direction according to the sound direction of the microphone.

[0014] Beneficial effects: By setting the rotating mechanism, the camera can follow the birds for shooting, reducing the shooting dead angle, and within a certain range, the installation quantity of the camera device can be reduced, saving costs.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the rotating mechanism is installed on a fixed rod. The fixed rod is provided with a gear support plate and a motor support plate at intervals from top to bottom. The rotating mechanism includes a driving motor, a first gear, and a second gear. The driving motor is installed on the motor support plate. The first gear is rotatably installed on the fixed rod and is located on the top surface of the gear support plate. The second gear is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor and meshes with the first gear. A support frame is fixedly connected to the top surface of the second gear, and the camera is installed on the support frame.

[0016] Beneficial effects: By driving the second gear with the driving motor, the first gear can be driven to rotate. The first gear drives the support frame to rotate, and the support frame can drive the camera to rotate, realizing 360-degree rotation of the camera. Description of the Drawings
