The biggest challenge in this industry is how to simulate the swiftlet's habitat inside the bird house to attract more birds. The suitability of the environment especially inside these houses are largely unknown due to very little research effort in this new area. This paper presents how wireless sensor networks (WSN) such as LoRa and video analytics techniques are utilized to simulate a conducive environment for the birds to stay in this artificial bird house. The wireless sensors are installed in the bird houses to collect humidity, temperature and oxygen data. With the combination of above data plus the number of birds entering and leaving the bird nest will be used to simulate an optimum environment inside the bird house. The bird counting algorithms developed throughout this project shows an accuracy of 92.5. © 2018 IEEE. publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. date: 2018 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Ibrahim, A.R. and Nik Ibrahim, N.H. and Harun, A.N. and Mohd Kassim, M.R. and Kamaruddin, S.E. and Meng, L.K. and Hui, C.J. and Witjaksono, G.
