conservation-technology

Bio-inspired ornithopter robot for wildlife conservation monitoring. Features bio-mimetic flapping mechanism, aerodynamic wing design, MPU-based stabilization and RF control system. Includes CFD analysis, mechanical design, embedded systems and experimental validation.

Wildguard: wildlife crime intelligence and poaching prevention in collaboration with WTI. FastAPI, React, multilingual analysis, live maps, and investigation tools.

CAMCALT (Complex Animal Movement Capture and Live Transmission) is a forest surveillance and monitoring system designed to capture complex animal movements and provide live video feed wirelessly from any part of the world. It aims to prevent hunting and poaching, enhancing forest security.

Legacy R Shiny web viewer for Biodiversity Viewer v1, preserved as project history and reference implementation.

Back up NFT metadata and content from EVM networks and Tezos.

Agentic Edge-AI for wildlife engagement. Real-time bioacoustics & video for Jetson Orin/NX. Orpheus moves beyond monitoring to interaction, optimizing for Daily Active Crows (DAC) via state-based reinforcement. No cloud, no latency, local intelligence.

Simple population modelling based on maturation rates of individual species and carrying capacity of a given ecosystem.

The code simulates the movement of birds between various stations, generating data points for each visit, including the station visited, exact (slightly perturbed) coordinates, and a timestamp. This data is stored in a GeoDataFrame that can be used for spatial analysis and visualization.

Promotion gate, per-site trust report and label-free drift study for zero-shot camera-trap classifiers (BioCLIP 2, SpeciesNet). Cheap adapted challengers are scored site by site on the Orinoquía dataset with a frozen hold-out and paired bootstrap.

Anomaly detection on public AIS vessel tracks: fishing in closed areas, transmission gaps, encounters and loitering, with held-out evaluation, a reception-coverage mask and a cloud cost model.

An alerting pipeline for wildlife GPS collars. It turns raw, late and duplicated fixes into alerts for possible deaths, silent collars and unusual movement, and is scored against real recorded deaths in public Movebank data.

AI-powered wildlife monitoring system for the Genesee Land Trust (PyTorch, EfficientNet-B1, Raspberry Pi, SQLite, Computer Vision)

Solar-powered Edge-AI for wetland monitoring at Ramsar sites. Integrates physico-chemical sensors with AI-based biological indicator detection.

How to rebuild a continuous wildlife detection pipeline on your own resources. Documentation and deploy config; no model code.

SoundBird is a full stack web application that uses bioacoustics to explore bird biodiversity. It combines machine learning audio analysis with dynamic species visualization.

Open-data ETL pipeline and Leaflet web map for GBIF species-occurrence records in the Malawi–Zambia transfrontier landscape. Built with PHP, MySQL, and Python on low-cost shared hosting — a no-licence alternative to Fabric, Databricks, and ArcGIS for small conservation data projects.

Open-source, low-cost hardware & firmware for automated, low-disturbance bat activity monitoring — IR beam-break counting + BLE, built on Arduino Nano ESP32.

Interactive lesser kestrel tracking map using recent Movebank GPS data

InsectNet bioacoustic classifier: exact deployed review bundle, provenance, tests, and historical research candidate.

Our foundational bioacoustics model Perch 2.0 developed with Google Research can be used to understand underwater marine ecosystems. 🌊
