Farmers around the world face significant threats from wild and domestic animals that damage crops. Traditional methods of crop protection, such as physical barriers, fencing, or chemical deterrents, have limitations in terms of cost, labor, and environmental impact. To address these challenges, a more innovative approach is required—particularly one that is cost-effective, sustainable, and humane.

One promising innovation in crop protection is the use of electronic systems, particularly animal detection systems integrated with buzzers or alarms. These systems utilize motion sensors to detect the presence of predator animals or herbivores and activate a loud buzzer or alarm to scare the animals away, thereby protecting the crops without causing harm to the animals. This concept draws on principles of sensor technology, behavioral ecology, and alarm response theory.
