ECO EYE-AI Powered Species Recognition System

Abstract

This paper presents an innovative project ECO EYE – AI powered species recognition system. A software application designed to facilitates species identification by classifying the image. Using the power of Artificial Intelligence & CNN, this system identifies the species in real-time through image recognition. On capturing the image of any plant or animal, the system will analyze the image; it will classify the image and retrieve the detailed information. The system offers detailed information about taxonomy at basic level, habitat, and population status. It also provides their uses and their role in nature. The system aims to serve as valuable resource for students, conservationist, and to those who are passionate to explore the nature and expanding the knowledge about plants and animals. This paper outlines the system’s architecture, detailing the AI models and image classification techniques used for accurate identification. It further includes real world application to increase the knowledge of plants and animal species.
