ProjectIntroduction
TerraTrack devices are used in SALVS-01 todetect wildlife species and their location using its

noise. These devices record animals noises,
process it using an AI, and transmit the data tothe TerraTrack-Sat for storage and transmission
back to Department of National Parks

Roots• Don’t require too many TerraTrack Alert tocover a sufficient area

• The geometry of this configuration allow us
to easily relay data from Alert->Alert->hub.

The Process
The process involves a
Fourier transform, filteringwith Low Pass and High
Pass filters to obtain two
types of sound data. Thesedata are then used to train
an AI model, which will beanalyzed for per formancein sound classification . Themodel will be placed on aRaspberr y Pi 4 connected
to a microphone to capture
and classify various animalsounds

Training AIs

AI Training - AI’s key performances• Precision• F1-score• Recall• Percentage of Accuracy• Numbers of Correct Classification
ExamplesAI Training - Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)

Tested using a familiar sound specimen

Tested using a familiar converted sound specimen from .csv to .wav

Tested using an unfamiliar sound specimen

AI Training - Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)
Output Evaluation
Evaluate the AI’s exactness bycalculating for the Mean- Absolute
Error (MAE) and Root Mean Square
Error (RMSE).

Implementation
plan (ground) #1
3 teams to standby at each area andanother team is at TerraTrack hub totest its capabilities in the field.

Implementation
plan (ground) #3
Increasing the database for AI as
much as possible by find a noise basefrom internet or recording interest
animals noise at zoo.

Implementationplan (ground) #2
The TerraTrack Hub will also beassemble in a sanitize anduncontaminated of human scent,because animals tend to avoid thepresence of humans.
