AI deep learning system helps keep lawn cat poop-free Too long; don't read
The short of it is that this Nvidia engineer, Robert Bond, has developed a system that detects when the neighbor's cats are in his yard, and turns the sprinklers on...
"Apparently, it can also help keep cats from pooping on your lawn." (and probably keep birds safe too)
"The deep learning system makes sure that only cats are sprayed, so visitors to the house won't be in for a sudden shower..."
"Since the system can determine where in the yard the cats are, Bond wants to send targeted remote-controlled cars out to spook the intruders when the cat detector is triggered."
