A wild animal repulsing apparatus for intimidating and repulsing wild animals, includes a light emitting unit having a plurality of light emitting elements, a sound generation unit for generating intimidating sound used to threaten the wild animals, a control unit for controlling light emitting operations of the light emitting unit and sound generating operations of the sound generation unit, and an appearance providing unit having an outer shape resembling in appearance of an animal and being capable of arranging so that two of the light emitting elements are appeared as eyes of the animal. The control unit controls the light emitting unit to blink the plurality of light emitting elements at a frequency of 18-24 Hz, and controls the sound generation unit so as to generate the intimidating sound with 80 dB or more at stopping interval of 15 minutes or more when no wild animal is appeared.

A self-contained, weatherproof control system containing logic that when connected to a video camera and loudspeaker, is a method for selective deterrence of problem individuals or populations of specific species of wildlife. Control system uses circuitry that interacts with video capture technology and extracts frames of video, then processed by object recognition software, powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning, which provides the ability to disregard any wildlife not considered nuisance and recognize and deter those animals that are considered a pest or a nuisance by way of a pre-configured action.

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.

A motion sensing nuisance fauna deterrent is provided for abating animal nuisances from disturbing a target flora. A sensing platform having a fixed base portion provides a stationary support platform. A rotating base platform has proximity detection sensors positioned about a periphery for proving non-contact proximity sensing capable of detecting a nuisance animal. A speaker provides an audible output in response to an actuation initiated the proximity sensors. A decoy secured to the platform is in the form of a canine. By placing at a detection perimeter and directed outward, an approach of a nuisance animal initiates an audible alarm to deter the approach of the nuisance animal with a non-lethal effect. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
