Bird Scarer Ultrasonic Emitter Kit with Arduino Uno
Bird Scarer Ultrasonic Emitter Kit with Arduino Uno – Protect Crops Without Harming Birds
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Protect your farm or garden from bird damage with a motion-activated ultrasonic deterrent you build and program yourself. This kit combines a PIR motion sensor and high-frequency sound bursts to scare birds away before they can feast on your crops, without chemicals or harm. Ideal for paddy fields, fruit orchards, or backyard gardens.
What You'll Build
A fully functional bird scarer that detects avian movement within a 5-7 meter cone and emits a burst of 40kHz ultrasound — inaudible to humans but startling to birds. The system runs on a 9V battery and can be mounted on a pole or tree near your crop zone.
What You'll Learn
- How PIR sensors detect motion and trigger digital outputs
- Programming Arduino to process sensor data and drive ultrasonic transducers
- Using transistors as switches to amplify signals for high-frequency emitters
- Real-world application of electronics in smart farming and crop protection

Who This Kit Is For
This kit is ideal for CBSE Class 11-12 students working on physics or agriculture projects, B.Tech ECE/EEE students exploring sensor-based automation, participants in Smart India Hackathon building smart farming solutions, and ATL Tinkering Labs teaching practical electronics. It's also a great fit for hobbyists wanting to protect their kitchen gardens from birds.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.

Will this harm birds or other animals?
The ultrasonic burst is harmless; it only startles birds temporarily and trains them to avoid the area, with no lasting impact.
Can I adjust the detection range?
Yes, the PIR sensor has a potentiometer to fine-tune sensitivity and range from 3 to 7 meters, suiting small plots or larger fields.
Is the circuit safe for outdoor use?
Build the project on the breadboard for indoor testing; for permanent outdoor deployment, transfer to a PCB and enclose in a weatherproof box (not included).
PIR detects birds in crop zone and triggers 40kHz ultrasonic transducer burst to scare them off.
