REAL-TIME MONITORING FOR DETECTING LAKE POLLUTION AND BIOTIC CONSERVATION

This research unveils a comprehensive system designed to tackle plastic pollution in lakes autonomously, eliminating the necessity for human intervention. By harnessing sensor data and camera imagery processed through the YOLO algorithm, the system identifies plastic debris. It then calculates the debris density and compares it against a preset threshold. Once the threshold is exceeded, an automated email alert containing the density data is sent to relevant authorities. Additionally, water quality sensors are integrated to continuously monitor environmental conditions. Regular updates are provided to enable proactive measures in pollution prevention. This endeavor showcases the utilization of advanced technology to address environmental challenges and safeguard aquatic ecosystems' health. By employing automated detection and monitoring mechanisms, the system offers a sustainable  approach to combat plastic pollution in lakes, fostering environmental conservation endeavors.
