In this paper, the experimental validation of a WSN-based smart system for the prevention of road incidents due to wildlife road crossing is presented. The proposed wireless architecture integrates a multisensory hardware platform for the detection of movement patterns of wildlife along the monitored road sides. The adopted sensing technologies enable the extraction of heterogeneous movement features to be processed in real-time. The integration of data fusion strategies provides robust detection of warning events and the output triggers dedicated light signals when required. An experimental setup has been installed in real scenarios where the wildlife presence is detected. A selected set of results are reported to assess the capabilities and potentialities of the system.

Abstract
In this paper, the experimental validation of a WSN-based smart system for the prevention of road incidents due to wildlife road crossing is presented. The proposed wireless architecture integrates a multisensory hardware platform for the detection of movement patterns of wildlife along the monitored road sides. The adopted sensing technologies enable the extraction of heterogeneous movement features to be processed in real-time. The integration of data fusion strategies provides robust detection of warning events and the output triggers dedicated light signals when required. An experimental setup has been installed in real scenarios where the wildlife presence is detected. A selected set of results are reported to assess the capabilities and potentialities of the system.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
