Design of Animal Detector Based on Thermal Imaging Sensor

Abstract Wandering in the city of stray animals to the life of urban residents, sanitation, safety, etc., bring a lot of trouble and become a thorny problem in urban management. In order to facilitate the search and rescue of stray animals by animal protection organizations, a low-cost animal detection system based on infrared thermal imaging technology was designed in this paper. Based on the infrared thermal imaging technology, the system adopts the Atmega328 microcontroller as the control core, and uses the infrared array senor to detect the external infrared radiation and converts the voltage fluctuations caused by the thermal radiation into digital signals through the built-in ADC. The master control convseudo color images through SPI bus, and interacts with the system through ESP8266 to acherts the temperature information collected by AMG8833, controls the color LCD to display infrared pieve remote control. The infrared detection system has the advantages of small size, low power consumption, low cost, wireless communication and portability. It can realize the search and rescue of small animals in urban areas and the monitoring function of indoor animals.
