BirdWatch AI – Embedded Bird Watching Solution with TensorFlow

Faire: Rome

Maker: Enrico Stulin

 

BirdWatch AI is an innovative project that combines a passion for bird watching with the power of artificial intelligence. Our birdhouse with automatic recognition leverages TensorFlow to offer an unprecedented birdwatching experience. The BirdWatch AI project encompasses the mechanical design of a bird feeder equipped with a Full HD camera (a 12-megapixel IMX708 sensor with HDR), with the primary aim to capture images and videos of visiting birds. Using TensorFlow's automatic recognition algorithm and image manipulation with OpenCV, BirdWatch AI accurately identifies the bird species present, providing detailed and engaging information for birdwatching enthusiasts. As an open-source project, BirdWatch AI invites developers, enthusiasts, and the curious to collaborate, make modifications, and improvements. This open and collaborative aspect of the project encourages the sharing of knowledge and skills and contributes to the growth of artificial intelligence and birdwatching. BirdWatch AI not only offers the opportunity to observe and learn more about local avian wildlife but also makes a significant impact in several areas: Environmental education and awareness: Through our project, we aim to educate the public about bird species and their ecological importance. By presenting our sighting records and relevant information about bird behaviors, we strive to promote environmental awareness and care for biodiversity. Contribution to scientific research: In collaboration with ornithologists and researchers, we share data collected via BirdWatch AI to contribute to understanding migratory habits, distribution patterns, and bird population dynamics. Our technology provides a novel approach for efficient and effective data collection. Technological innovation: BirdWatch AI represents an interesting integration of nature observation and artificial intelligence. We are proud to demonstrate how the application of TensorFlow has enabled the automatic recognition of bird species, opening new perspectives for the use of AI in wildlife conservation and observation. At Maker Faire Rome, we will present a working prototype of our birdhouse, illustrating how we use TensorFlow for automatic bird recognition. We will also display a selection of recordings that demonstrate the effectiveness of our technology. We are excited to share our project with the audience at Maker Faire Rome, inspiring others to explore the universe of birds through technological innovation.

Dogger: Quadruped Robot

Faire: Delft

Maker: Fabio Boekel

Home: Zuid-Holland, Nederland

Dogger is een viervoetige robot die vanaf de grond af aan ontworpen is. Het ontwerp maakt gebruik van een combinatie van bestaande onderdelen en 3D geprinte onderdelen. Het brein van de robot is een Raspberry Pi met daarop het robotic operating system (ROS) en Ubuntu. Wat Dogger uniek maakt ten opzichte van andere hobby viervoetige robots zijn de 'torque controlled' motoren. Dit in combinatie met een kleine vertraging doormiddel van snaren in de benen van de robot zorgt ervoor dat de benen kunnen meegeven. Momenteel kan Dogger wat kleine stappen zetten maar de volgende stap is om de robot beter te laten lopen via reinforcement learning in een simulatie omgeving. Ik wil graag jullie meer vertellen, uitleggen en laten zien over het project op de Maker Faire in Delft.
