BCB001 - Panic Buttons
BCB001 Panic Buttons are the most simple BCB devices, however they can be a quite effective tool to implement human - Jaguar coexistence policies. BCB Panic Buttons are meant to be operated by humans in the case they see a Jaguar, a suspected hunter or they hear gunfire. Panic buttons are just small devices that contains a few buttons, a LoRa Radio and a GPS receiver. This information feeds the system as if it were generated by any other smart device.
In some parts of Argentina Jaguars are seen as an opportunity and in other zones they are seen as a threat. Human engagement is key to preserve our Jaguars; engaging local inhabitants in this quest is vital; Panic Buttons can be a good tool to:
-
Avoid hunting situations.

-
Allow people to know and care about Jaguars.
-
Create reward policies for Jaguar friends.

Feed the system with wider and accurate information.
