1) All around the world, the birds and animals are a major threat in
the field of agriculture causing damage to economic field crops, storage houses and also
dirtying human life areas.
2) These birds and animals are control by practicing different traditionally outdated
method. But now a days with the change of technology different electronic repeller are
adapted for bird control in agricultural field. This study had been carried out to know the
different electronic bird repellers are available and also the technique. Used in it is
discussed. The main aim of the project was to design and construct a bird repellent
prototype that is dynamic and play sounds of distress to disperse off the birds. In
conclusion, the technology of this modern technology has many applications which include
reducing financial loss due to crop damage caused by birds and animals
Birds can cause damage to property and crops, creating an inconvenience that can be
difficult to manage. Bird repellers are devices designed to deter birds from inhabiting or
nesting in specific areas. Among the different types of bird repellers available, those that
use motion detectors have been found to be particularly effective. These devices utilize
sensors that detect motion to activate a mechanism that emits sound or light to scare birds
away. By using motion detectors, these bird repellers are more efficient and cost-effective
than other bird repellers, as they only activate when a bird is present, conserving battery
life and reducing false alarms. Additionally, they are humane, as they do not harm the birds,
but merely scare them away, making them an eco-friendly and effective solution to bird-
related problems. Overall, bird repellers using motion detectors are an efficient and
effective solution to an age-old problem that has long plagued property owners and farmers
alike.

CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
Electronic bird repellent devices produce extremely effective audio and visual threats that
frighten, irritate, and disorient birds, forcing them to seek calmer, untreated areas. They are
also used on airfields to prevent birds accumulating near runways and causing a potential
hazard to aircraft. Electronic bird deterrents condition pest birds to stay away from treated
areas for good. In order to protect these areas against bird damage, some electronic based
mechanical methods are adapted for control. It has the general procedures for designing
the control circuits, the selection of materials for construction, and design for some
structural parts of the REPELLER (arms and support).
Birds are beautiful creatures that add life and vitality to our surroundings. However, they
can also cause significant damage to property and crops, creating a nuisance that can be
challenging to manage. Bird droppings, nesting materials, and feathers can be unsightly
and unhygienic, while their pecking and scratching can damage structures and crops.
Additionally, birds can be noisy and disruptive, creating an unwelcome environment for
humans and other animals.
To address these issues, bird repellers have been developed to keep birds away from areas
where they are not wanted. Bird repellers come in different shapes and sizes, and they use
various techniques to discourage birds from landing or nesting in specific areas. One of the
most effective birds repellers is the one that uses motion detectors.
A bird repeller that uses motion detectors is a device that can detect the presence of birds
through sensors that detect movement. Once the device detects movement, it activates a
mechanism that produces sound, light, or both to scare the birds away. These devices are
usually battery-powered and have adjustable sensitivity settings, allowing users to
customize the device's operation to their specific needs.
Bird repellers using motion detectors are ideal for a wide range of environments where
1
birds may be unwanted, such as in agricultural fields, orchards, rooftops, and outdoor
dining areas. They are also useful for preventing birds from colliding with windows or
other structures, reducing the likelihood of injury or death.
By using motion detectors, these bird repellers are more efficient than other bird repellers,
as they only activate when a bird is present, conserving battery life and reducing false
alarms. Additionally, they are humane, as they do not harm the birds, but merely scare
them away, making them an eco-friendly and effective solution to bird-related problems.
Overall, bird repellers using motion detectors are a highly effective, eco-friendly, and
humane solution to bird problems in various settings. With their adjustable settings,
battery-powered operation, and efficient use of technology, they offer an effective solution
to an age-old problem that has long plagued property owners and farmers alike.

It detects infrared radiation from the environment. Once there is infrared radiation from the
human body particle with temperature, focusing on the optical system causes the pyro
electric device to generate a sudden electrical signal.
Simply, when a human body or any animal passes by, then it intercepts the first slot of the
PIR sensor. This causes a positive differential change between the two bisects. When a
human body leaves the sensing area, the sensor generates a negative differential change
between the two bisects.

4.2 BUZZER
The buzzer is an electronic component that produces a loud, high-pitched sound when an
electrical signal is applied to it. It is commonly used as an alarm or warning device in
various types of electronic devices
Buzzer terminals are typically color-coded and labeled to indicate their polarity. The
positive terminal is typically marked with a + sign, and the negative terminal is typically
marked with a - sign. When connecting a buzzer to an electronic circuit, it is important to
ensure that the positive and negative terminals are connected to the correct pins or
terminals to avoid damage to the buzzer or the circuit.
