AVES Wind - Anti-Collision System for Wind Farms

The AVES Wind Anti-Collision System represents a significant advancement in wind farm technology, focused on safeguarding avian life while optimizing turbine efficiency. Designed to reduce bird collisions, this system employs precise real-time detection coupled with intelligent turbine control, thereby maintaining continuous operations with minimal interruptions. Unique features include a high species-specific detection rate and a low false-positive rate, ensuring that operational downtimes are minimized and reliability is enhanced. The system can be effectively integrated with existing wind farm infrastructure, reducing both installation time and cost, thus promoting a quicker return on investment. Approved by authorities in Schleswig-Holstein, the system is anticipated to gain wider recognition, enhancing regulatory compliance and future viability. Additionally, upcoming enhancements will include real-time bat detection, further broadening its ecological protection scope.

AVES Wind - Monitoring System for Bird Activity

The AVES Wind Monitoring system is a sophisticated tool designed to provide continuous bird activity monitoring around wind farms. By leveraging advanced AI technology, this system allows for fully automated and autonomous ornithological data collection, significantly reducing manual efforts and enhancing data accuracy. Its primary function is to assist wind farm operators in making informed decisions regarding turbine control, thus optimizing operational efficiency. The data gathered supports the creation of precise risk models, crucial for meeting regulatory requirements. These models improve project acceptance in regulatory processes by minimizing risks associated with environmental impact. Additionally, the system ensures a future-proof wind farm operation through its capability to autonomously collect and analyze data, offering a comprehensive solution that reduces costs and enhances reliability and accuracy in monitoring bird activities to safeguard both avian wildlife and energy infrastructure.

AVES Airport - Bird Strike Prevention System

The AVES Airport system leverages advanced AI-based technology to enhance aviation safety by effectively mitigating the risks of bird strikes during aircraft takeoffs and landings. This system is engineered to automatically detect and sustainably deter birds from entering sensitive airport areas. Utilizing precise sensors and AI-driven tracking software, it effectively handles both solitary birds and entire flocks. Its acoustic module, coupled with intelligent camera technology, ensures targeted deterrence. Additional features include comprehensive monitoring capabilities across different lighting conditions, simultaneous tracking of up to 256 birds per camera, and avoiding habituation through event-triggered deterrence. The system offers fully automated operation via an ADS-B receiver and supports automated event documentation and analysis, along with a web-based interface and an optional AI module for species identification.

AVES Stadium - Autonomous AI-based Bird Deterrent System for Stadiums

AVES Stadium presents a comprehensive solution for stadium operators who face ongoing challenges in maintaining pristine conditions within their facilities. Employing an advanced AI-based, fully automatic and autonomous bird deterrent system, AVES Stadium® addresses the problem of birds, such as pigeons and crows, causing damage to lawns and soiling stadium infrastructure. The system prevents birds from flying through open stadium roofs and ensures compliance with TA-Noise regulation limits at various measuring points, minimizing subjective noise perceived by employees and visitors. Furthermore, it offers the ability to deactivate loudspeakers via mobile remote controls and adheres to GDPR regulations with precise camera detection zones. This innovation significantly reduces the labor and cost associated with traditional maintenance efforts, offering a strategic and efficient approach to stadium upkeep.
