AI System"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>TrailGuard AI System Latest News<\/h2>\n<p>Similipal Tiger Reserve is the first reserve where TrailGuard AI system has shown success as an \u2018anti-poaching tool.<\/p>\n<h2>About TrailGuard AI System<\/h2>\n<p>It is an end-to-end, <strong>camera-based alert system<\/strong> designed for enhancing wildlife conservation and promoting human-wildlife coexistence in remote areas.<\/p>\n<h2>Features of TrailGuard AI System<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The system combines durable outdoor hardware, <strong>on-the-edge AI algorithms<\/strong>, and real-time transmission capabilities, and can be deployed along trails or access points in areas of interest.<\/li>\n<li>Its battery <strong>lasts for six months<\/strong> to one year based on the number of photos it sends<\/li>\n<li>It <strong>autonomously detects target objects<\/strong>, and transmits real-time alerts that can trigger rapid-response to entry by poachers or illegal loggers, wildlife entering agricultural or pastoral lands, or status of endangered or exotic invasive species.<\/li>\n<li>It transmits human and wildlife activities in <strong>remote areas in under 30 seconds,<\/strong> enabling real-time interventions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Working of TrailGuard AI System<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>They operate on a <strong>low-power mode<\/strong> by default but switch to a high-power mode when they sense movement, and capture an image.<\/li>\n<li>The camera then performs <strong>AI inference on the edge<\/strong>, meaning it uses the chip inside to sort between various object classes such as \u2018animals\u2019, \u2018humans\u2019, and \u2018vehicles\u2019 in the image.<\/li>\n<li>If the AI deems it necessary, it autonomously transmits an image using the cellular system attached to the camera to an end-user in 30-40 seconds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>TrailGuard AI System FAQs<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Q1:<\/strong> What is the AI camera for wildlife?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> AIT uses pattern recognition to identify images that contain animals and discard those that do not.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q2:<\/strong> How artificial intelligence is changing wildlife research?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> It is by optimizing data collection, monitoring, and analysis efforts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q3:<\/strong> Who is the father of artificial intelligence UPSC?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> John McCarthy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: <\/strong><a
