A building monitoring computer system for monitoring building integrity may be provided. Various types of sensors may be embedded throughout or within certain portions of different types of building or construction material making up the building, such as within roofing, foundation, or structural materials. The sensors may be in wireless communication with a home controller. The sensors may be water, moisture, temperature, vibration, or other types of sensors, and may detect unexpected or abnormal conditions within the home. The sensors and/or home controller may transmit alerts to a mobile device of the home owner associated with the unexpected condition, and/or that remedial actions may be required to repair the home or mitigate further damage to the home. The sensor data may also be communicated to an insurance provider remote server to facilitate the insurance provider communicating insurance-related recommendations, updating insurance policies, or preparing insurance claims for review for home owners.

An automated system for mitigating risk from a wind farm. The automated system may include an array of a plurality of image capturing devices independently mounted in a wind farm. The array may include a plurality of low resolution cameras and at least one high resolution camera. The plurality of low resolution cameras may be interconnected and may detect a spherical field surrounding the wind farm. A server is in communication with the array of image capturing devices. The server may automatically analyze images to classify an airborne object captured by the array of image capturing devices in response to receiving the images.

The invention relates to a removable deflector for protecting the feet of a structure, which corrode following infiltration of water under the bottom plates and which weakens these areas. The invention concerns a removable device enabling the positioning of protection for the feet of storage tanks without a shut-down of production. The device according to the invention is a deflector element and a deflector assembly consisting of a plurality of deflector elements, capable of being positioned one after the other in order to surround the feet of the wall of the structure. Each deflector element comprises at least one downward-sloping protective plate (1), at least one flexible sealing gasket attached along the upper edge of this plate (1), and: at least one retaining arm (5) for same, wherein one of its ends is fixed to the so-called upper edge of said plate (1) and the other so-called distal end is capable of being rigidly and reversibly attached to an element of said structure and to be detached therefrom, this arm allowing the adjustment of the pressing of the sealing gasket against the wall (14) of the tank, and at least one support (6) arranged towards its lower edge and separable into at least two parts suitable for making the deflector removable, of which the upper one is attached underneath the plate (1) and the other, lower one, is attached to the support slab (23) of the structure wall (14).

An automated system for mitigating risk from a wind turbine includes a plurality of optical imaging sensors. A controller receives and analyzes images from the optical imaging sensors to automatically send a signal to curtail operation of the wind turbine to a predetermined risk mitigating level when the controller determines from images received from the optical imaging sensors that an airborne animal is at risk from the wind turbine.

An adjustable barrier for use with a building having a door frame with a door frame opening, a track assembly, and a garage door positioned between the track assembly to selectively cover the door frame opening, the adjustable barrier comprising a barrier bracket and an extendable barrier panel. The adjustable barrier is adapted to seal off a garage door gap located between the garage door and the door frame, and is positioned between the door frame and the track to create a barrier preventing a pest from bypassing the garage door and entering the building through the garage door gap. The extendable barrier panel selectively extends and retracts to adjust to the distance between the track and the door frame, and may further be tapered to allow the adjustable barrier to maintain contact with the track when the track curves away from the door frame.
