Projects:2019s2-22702 Barkbusters 2.0
The aim of the project is to develop a small field deployable device that can detect and log the barking activity of one specific animal. This proposal will show the approach by which our group will complete the project. A detailed procedure and timetable are included. Other important considerations like background, significance, requirements and constraints are also included.
Introduction
Bark busters 2.0 is designed not to control the barking of the dog but to log the barking activity of a specific animal. This can be used as a proof by the person who is facing a nuisance due to a specific animal and make a complaint to the concerned officer. This is simple solution to collect a proof against a disturbing animal. When dealing with dogs, there are legal issues that need to be considered. Legally, the person owning the dog is solely responsible for the control of the dog is guilty of an offence if a dog” creates a noise, by barking or otherwise, which persistently occurs or continues to such a degree or extent that is unreasonably interferes with the peace or convenience of a person.” Bark busters 2.0 helps the person facing inconvenience with a specific animal to collect a proof against it and complaint to the concerned officer. We will have to design the device in such a way that it should be able to differentiate the noises and able to record only the log activity of a specific animal. It should also be able to differentiate the bark of one animal to another.
