Brief Explanation

We installed LED Billboards on Austria´s most critical road kill areas and implemented the BMW Night Vision system. The Animal Detecting Billboards can spot people and animals at night up to a distance of 300m. As soon as the remote infrared system and it´s thermal camera detected animals, such as deer, cows, rabbits or wild boars, a bright warning appeared on the billboards instantly. After the animal moved out of the sensor field, the billboards switched to normal, showing a Night Vision live feed of the road.
