Abstract

Thailand is an agricultural country, where is located in Southeast Asia. We can produce various kinds of food in not only a good quality but also a huge quantity. One problem of both quality and quantity control of our food products are the food harmful pests such as bird, ant, weevil, aphid, grasshopper etc. Therefore, this project intends to develop the computer system that can be chased birds from a farm. The smart scarecrow is developed by using an image processing technique. Overall works are software development. The system is designed to detect pest birds from a real time video frame after it detects the birds then it generates a loudly sound to chase them. The system consists of four major components: 1) image acquisition 2) image preprocessing, 3) bird recognition and 4) generating sound. The experiment has been conducted in order to access the following qualities: 1) usability, to prove that the system can detect and scare pest birds and 2) efficiency, to show that the system can work with a high accuracy.
