Testing of ElephantAI

A project log for Elephant AI

a system to prevent human-elephant conflict by detecting elephants using machine vision, and warning humans and/or repelling elephants

So, at this stage we have built, tested, and setup, all the computational components of the system, including their associated circuits, and we have added our final code to each of them!

Remember we have three primary computational components:

-- Elephant Detection Device

which is comprised of:

dayPi (Raspberry Pi)

nightPi (Raspberry Pi)

-- Elephant Deter Device

which is comprised of:

PiZero

AmpZero

Now let's get started on testing how the system interacts!

For testing, I suggest having a monitor and keyboard/mouse for each of the three primary computational components. And of course, we want all of our associated circuits setup! You don't need the solar recharging circuit. You can just test the IR illumination devices by connecting a 12v battery to the optically isolated switching circuit.

Let's see how we get on!
