Discussion on Improving the Fencing System Using Infrared Sensor and Digital Image Processing

According to the modern society, with the improvement of people’s demands on the quality of life and work, people’s demand for building and environmental security issues is also growing. This paper mainly puts forward some suggestions for improving the fixed fence outside the building.

Modern fencing consists mainly of industrial fences(such as factory fences, commercial site fences), agricultural land fences(such as field fences, livestock fences), civil fences(such as building top fences, fence walls, etc.), public facilities fences(such as road barriers) and so on. According to different materials, it can be divided into aluminum alloy fences, zinc steel fences, barbed wire fences, electric fences, wooden stake fences, biological fences, barbed wire fences, ditch fences, Earth wall fences, stone wall fences, Liuba fences, PVC fences, cement fences, etc. The types that are commonly and widely used in life are aluminum alloy fences and zinc steel fences. Since aluminum does not have problems such as embrittlement, decay, rust, etc, coupled with special spraying or oxidation in the later period, it can be resistant to ultraviolet rays, non-decolorization, non-yellow, non-peeling, non-cracking, foaming and insect pests. Because it does not rust oxidation, nor does it require the use of waterproof covers, the service life can reach more than 60 years. Zinc rigid guardrail is a high-temperature hot dip zinc material. High-quality steel is put into a zinc liquid pool of several thousand degrees. After soaking for a certain period of time, zinc liquid will penetrate into the steel to form a special zinc steel alloy. The surface of hot zinc-impregnated material can be uncorroded for 30 years without any treatment in the wild environment, which easily solves the problems between rust prevention, beauty and safety. Both have advantages, and the price and appearance are not far apart, and the accounting cost is not too high. So it is widely used.

On this basis, I imagine that adding a new type of electric fence would improve the security system. As far as I know, there is now a high-pressure pulse electronic fence, the characteristics of the high-pressure pulse electronic fence are both deterrence, blocking and alarm functions. And has a strong deterrent. Once touched, there is a very strong sense of electric shock. Also it is with short circuit, open circuit alarm function and use high voltage and low-energy pulses which will not cause direct damage to the human body. The environment is highly adaptable and is not affected by temperature and climate change, nor is it limited by the height of the terrain and the degree of twists and turns. Therefore, the high-voltage pulse electronic fence can have a strong impact and can give the intruder a real sense of deterrence, making it daunting. And it can detect the short circuit of the wire rope, open up the signal and send an alarm. However, the characteristics of the high-pressure pulse electronic fence make it potentially dangerous. If accidentally touched, it may cause indirect damage such as falling due to direct strong inductance. For example, children who touch the
fence by mistake may also have more serious consequences. Sometimes sparks are generated, they are not suitable for use in environments with flammable gases, and they should also maintain sufficient distance from the power line.

Therefore, it is necessary to better judge the object passing through the fence, and after the algorithm’s judgment, it is decided whether to apply voltage or alarm. Together with this identification and judgment, you can prevent unnecessary harm and people get to know more
clearly what the creatures who cross the fences are. Therefore, an ordinary electronic fence can be combined with an infrared sensor and a digital image processing system to identify biological categories passing through the ordinary fence. This requires relevant theories about blackbody radiation: everything in nature above absolute zero is constantly radiating energy ,the size of the outward radiation energy of the object and its wavelength distribution are very closely related to its surface temperature. The higher the temperature of the object, the stronger the infrared radiation emitted. Consequently, infrared related technology can be used to determine the creatures passing through the fence, and then combined with digital image processing, the signal
from the infrared sensor can be processed and the general outline of the organism can be drawn. Then computer will automatically identify the category of the creature by the relevant biological knowledge. After the category is judged, it is decided whether to impose a high voltage or alarm. This aspect also needs relevant knowledge of artificial intelligence and deep-learning. Finally, a new type of electronic fence for more intelligent, judgmental and accurate buildings is realized.

All in all, such a fence, based on a combination of ordinary aluminum alloy and zinc steel, coupled with a high-pressure pulse electronic fence with infrared sensing and digital image system processing can achieve safer, more efficient and more intelligent fence protection. It can more accurately judge organisms and determine whether to apply high pressure and alarm.
