Concept scenario
Forest Illegal Logging and Poacher Tracking
Scenario record: it defines the environment, the mission flow and a proposed hardware and software configuration. The list below is a configuration proposal, not an installation inventory. Field projects lists deployed systems and their measurements.
- Environment
- Outdoor field
- Operating mode
- Supervised autonomy
- Proposed robot
- Unitree A2
The problem addressed
Smuggling cases experienced due to insufficient human patrol in massive forested areas.
Draft mission flow
- 1Patrols silently throughout the night in critical and deep points of the forest where vehicles cannot enter.
- 2Verifies chainsaw or gunshot sounds coming from kilometers away by filtering with acoustic artificial intelligence.
- 3Instantly determines the direction and coordinate of the threat and sends an emergency signal to law enforcement forces.
Proposed hardware
- Advanced Microphone Array (Acoustic listening)
- Night Vision Thermal Sensor
- Long Distance 5G/RF Communication
Proposed software
- Navigation
- Silent SLAM in irregular forest terrain
- Model
- Chainsaw and Gunshot Frequency Classification
- Integration
- Forest Protection / Gendarmerie Alarm Network

Values are manufacturer data. Scenario fit is determined by comparing these limits with site conditions.
From scenario to installation
Feasibility is determined by the site survey: floor and route, network coverage, the charging point, intervention responsibilities and the conditions under which the robot must stop. The survey report defines the scope, the constraints and the commissioning steps.
