Burrow
IoT rodent detection for storage and agricultural use — motion and chew sensors flag infestations before stock losses accumulate.
Problem
Rodents damage stored grain and equipment wiring before traps show catches. Burrow places low-power sensor nodes that detect motion, vibration, and chew patterns, alerting caretakers while infestation is still localized.
What it covers
- PIR and vibration channels for night-time activity spikes
- Chew-wire resistance sensing on baited conduit loops
- Edge aggregation to reduce per-node radio chatter
- Alert routing to SMS or local buzzer for unmanned sheds
uint8_t scoreRodentActivity(const SensorFrame& f) {

if (f.chewResistanceDrop > kChewThreshold) score += 35;
if (f.vibrationRms > kVibeThreshold) score += 25;
return score;
