Abstract

In this modern world smuggling goods has become a common thing especially of important trees in forests, such as red sandalwood. This represents a huge threat to forest resources, inflicts enormous economic harm, and has a disastrous impact on the ecosystem around the world. This work offers a WSN-based microcontrollerbased anti-poaching system capable of detecting theft and protecting forests from natural disasters by monitoring vibrations, location, smoke, and temperature produced by various sensors attached to trees/branches. A three-axis MEMS accelerometer is used as a tilt sensor to monitor the position of the tree, a sound sensor to detect the vibrations from the tree, and also a temperature to detect the wildfires and alert the user immediately and tell the exact location with the help of GPS module. A microcontroller is used along with PC so that the information can be uploaded. The main application of temperature and smoke sensors is not only alerting the system but also pumping the water ...
