IMAGING ARRAY FOR BIRD OR BAT DETECTION AND IDENTIFICATION
First Claim
1. An automated system for tracking object motion in a designated area, the automated system comprising:
- an array of image capturing devices independently mounted in the designated area;
the array including a network of low resolution cameras and at least one high resolution camera;
wherein the network of low resolution cameras are interconnected and detect a geometric field surrounding the designated area;
a server in communication with the array of image capturing devices;
wherein the server analyzes images to classify an airborne object captured by the array of image capturing devices in response to receiving the images.

Abstract
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.

13. A method of analyzing object movement in a designated area, the method comprising:
-
detecting an airborne object through a low resolution camera; activating a high resolution stereo camera set to provide high resolution imagery data of the airborne object; transmitting, automatically through a computing device, the high resolution imagery data to a cloud server; classifying, through the cloud server, the airborne object based at least in part on the high resolution imagery data; monitoring the airborne object with the high resolution stereo camera set as the airborne object enters the designated area based at least in part on a classification when the airborne object is classified as at least one of a predetermined species; and activating mitigation efforts within the designated area when the airborne object meets a threshold classification and a threshold location. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
