How IoT Sensors Are Saving Endangered Species from Poachers
from Internet of Things with Fexingo: Connected Devices, Sensors, and Industrial IoT · host Fexingo
Episode 30 of Internet of Things with Fexingo takes you inside a rhino sanctuary in South Africa where IoT sensors are being used to combat poaching. Lucas and Luna explore how connected collars with accelerometers and heart-rate monitors detect poaching events in real time, alerting rangers within minutes. They discuss the technology stack — from LoRaWAN networks to edge computing — and the challenges of powering sensors in remote reserves. A concrete case study: the nonprofit organization Rouxcel Technology and its work with the Ol Pejeta Conservancy. This episode is not about surveillance but about proactive conservation using the same sensors found in smart buildings and industrial pipelines — repurposed to save animals. #IoT #ConnectedDevices #Sensors #IIoT #Conservation #WildlifeProtection #Poaching #Rhino #LoRaWAN #EdgeComputing #RouxcelTechnology #OlPejetaConservancy #SouthAfrica #Technology #AnimalTracking #SmartConservation #RealTimeMonitoring #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
