  3. Motivation Dr. Kerri Vierling of the University of Idaho Fish and Wildlife Department has been performing research centered upon woodpeckers for more than 14 years -Habitat selection -Breeding habits -Other animals using woodpecker tree cavities -Predatory information A topic of concern for conservationists globally

  4. Previous System No data storage Unwieldy Poor battery life Weather dependant

  5. Overview -Photos in low light conditions -Continuously powered (4 months) -High data storage capacity -Internally mountable -Triggered by animal presence -Functions during extreme weather

  6. Camera Module Infrared proximity sensors Near-infrared flash LEDs Filtering Capacitor Infrared camera, wide-angle lens Industrial MIL connector Microprocessor

  7. Electronics 3-3.6V RS-232 Serial JPEG Imaging Transistor switches Picture of the PCB’s Rabbit Board 5 sec interval

  8. Software Flowchart

  9. Casing Transparent Face-Plate Custom machined casing and end-cap Water tight o-ring seal PCB retaining slots 45 degree bevel Gasket Seal MIL Connector

  10. Mechanical Specifications Thermal concerns; Environment temperatures of -20° to 110° F Calculated internal operating temperatures ranging from 10° to130° F Heat Analysis - Cross Section of Mount Heat loss Power In Modeled using Engineering Equation Solver Cavity To Battery

  11. Mechanical Specifications Casing Machined from Type II PVC Stock -Rated for temperatures from -40° to 140° F -Easily machined -Inexpensive Faceplate Cut from Acrylic Sheet Water-Proof Seal

  12. Camera mounting hole drilling Usability/mounting notes Cavity Excavation Site: PCEI

  13. Camera module mounted internally Mounting and Testing

  14. Top-down view Camera face is directed downward
