Kiwibit Introduces AI Bird Feeder That Identifies Bird Species

Kiwibit has introduced a new artificial intelligence-powered bird feeder designed to identify and report on bird species visiting a user's garden. The model, named Bird Feeder 2 Pro, recognizes birds and sends real-time alerts to the user's smartphone, including images and species identification.

The device, priced at $350, also records high-definition video of the birds. The AI system is reported to identify various species, such as the Great Tit and Eurasian Blue Tit. These notifications assist users in monitoring the birds that visit their gardens and learning about them.

After installation, it typically takes several weeks for the bird feeder to attract a diverse range of bird species. The device utilizes expensive, husked sunflower seeds as food, with birds often collecting seeds to consume safely in nearby trees.

Kiwibit aims to merge technology with nature observation, offering users a novel way to connect with wildlife. The bird feeder's features, including 4K HDR video recording, enable detailed observation of bird behavior.
