Research Abstract |
Carrier pigeon-like sensing system is a future present archetype in human interface that will enable the human race to observe inaccessible forest. The system employs wildlife-borne sensing devices, which have animal-to-animal Internet sharing capability and Animal- Touch and Go (ATG) function for wireless charging, and can be used to expand the size of monitoring areas where the electricity supply and information infrastructure is either limited or nonexistent. Thus, monitoring information can be collected from remote areas cost-effectively and safely. The system is based on the concept of human computer biosphere interaction.
