AI Summary

A year‑long pilot study on an offshore wind turbine demonstrated that thermal cameras combined with artificial‑intelligence analysis can directly monitor potential bird collisions at sea. The system performed reliably despite challenging marine conditions, capturing rare real‑world data on how birds move around the turbine. These observations provide concrete evidence that the technology can be used to study and potentially mitigate avian impacts on offshore wind farms.
