Canada tests ‘Bear-vision’ doorbell cameras to detect approaching polar bears

 Researchers are trialling Bear-vision, an AI-powered system aimed at detecting approaching polar bears in Canada. This technology combines radar and cameras to provide advance warnings to communities about nearby bears. The trial occurs at a waste facility in Churchill, which has concerns due to bears searching for food. Climate change impacts polar bear behavior, increasing human-polar bear encounters on land. Researchers are trialling Bear-vision, an AI-powered system aimed at detecting approaching polar bears in Canada.
