Looking for sensors and cameras to install along fence gaps in a conservation area to uniquely and precisely identify animal movement patterns. Any ideas?

Hi Damian,
For automated detection (i.e process the image using Google's Tensorflow) you should get in touch with ZSL and ask about their Instant Detect 2 system.
Arribada are also looking at thermopile (very low cost infrared sensors) to create pixel thermal images of animals via the WWF / WILDLABS human-wildlife challenge at the moment too. We are working to develop an open hardware / software platform so you're welcome to trial this in the future. Both could be combined for both optical and infrared detection.
All the best,
Alasdair

Here's the Tensorflow work with Google ZSL are implementing - https://www.blog.google/topics/google-cloud/cloud-automl-making-ai-accessible-every-business/

Hello Alasdair,
Thank you for some thoughts. I have contacted Emily of ZSL, looking forward to getting some feedback from her. Thank you.

Hello Alasdair,
Hope you're well. I have been trying to get in contact with ZSL team but haven't received any feedback to my emails sent to them.
Could you be having contacts for someone there?
