Tree poaching detector using Arduino UNO, LoRa Module with PIR sensor, Vibration sensor, and Sound sensor

A tree poaching detector using a PIR motion sensor ,Vibration sensor and Sound sensor integrated into Arduino UNO to tree cutting activity.

Transmitter Module

This module has Arduino UNO which is connected with a PIR sensor, Vibration sensor, Sound sensor, and a LoRa Transmitter to transmit all the sensor's data to the receiver module.
