ABSTRACT
The projected population of India being 1500 million by 2050 and agriculture remaining as
the primary source of livelihood in rural areas, the focus should be on the increase of
productivity.
Erratic Power supply or complete breakdown for hours together has almost become routine
today. Solar power is being increasingly utilized worldwide as a renewable source of
energy.
Power problem to farmers for irrigation is a regular problem where still a permanent
solution has not been find out.
Human animal conflict is a major problem where enormous amount of resources is lost and
human life is in danger.
Usually farms are protected with electrical fence.
INTRODUCTION
India is an agricultural country. Agriculture has always been India‟s most important
economic sector. Though most of the India‟s population depends on agriculture, there
are still a lot many problems faced by farmers.
Animals leaving the forest area and entering the human habitat is increasing day by day.
Animals entering the agricultural areas placed near the forest destroy crops or even
attack on people therefore there is a need of system which detects the animal presence
and gives warning about that in the view of security purpose.
In this project, wild animal which enters the human habitation are recognized. The
movement of animals in the input video is detected using Foreground detector
algorithm.

METHODOLOGY : ANIMAL DETECTION
SOLAR TRACKER
One way to make the Solar panel more effective is by adding the ability to track the sun as it
moves across the sky.
A Solar tracker is a device used for orienting a Solar PV panel or lens towards the sun by using
the light sensors interfaced to motors, used for rotation, through a microcontroller, to have
maximum solar radiation incident on the solar panel.
The motors can be used to move the panels either along ONE or TWO axes.
DC MOTOR DRIVE
The Dcmotor is a type of amplifier or power modulator that integrate between the contoller
and a DC motor.
It takes the low current and then converts it into a high current which is appropriate for the
motor.
DC MOTORS
SOLAR PANEL
The rating of each Photo-Voltaic solar panel is, Pmax = 1.3W, Vmax = 7.5V.
Two such panels are connected in series to get a stable output voltage of 12V.
CHARGE CONTROLLER
This is basically a voltage regulating circuit which is placed between a solar panel and battery
to be charged or any load connected to the panel.
It regulates the voltage that is received from solar panel.

Here there is no input or output pins, instead we use H-bridge to run a motor.
H-BRIDGE
An H-bridge is an electronic circuit

A solar panel is a device that collects the solar light and converts it to electrical
energy.
Solar Tracker is used to track solar lights according to the direction of light
