Abstract

With the global population on the rise, the demand for food production has increased, necessitating efficient and secure farming practices. Animal intrusion poses a significant challenge to modern agricultural operations, leading to crop damage, economic losses, and potential threats to food security. This paper explores the innovative approach of integrating laser-ultrasound-based technology and the Internet of Things (IoT) to prevent and detect animal intrusion on farms. By combining the precision of lasers with the connectivity of IoT, farmers can achieve enhanced security, reduced losses, and improved overall agricultural sustainability in an economic and efficient manner.
