Energy sustainability remains one of the humanity’s most pressing challenges. Electrical power systems, while essential for modern infrastructure, pose significant risks to wildlife, particularly birds. When birds approach to high-voltage power grids, they face fatal electrocution, leading to ecological harm and potential damage to electrical infrastructure. To mitigate this issue, we propose an embedded system that combines low-cost hardware with deep learning for real-time avian detection and deterrence. Our solution employs the YOLO-v2 neural network, implemented on a K210 embedded processor featuring dual 64-bit cores running at 400 MHz, achieving an inference speed of 45 frames per second. The model was trained on a curated dataset of 1,500 diverse bird images, optimized for network input, and achieved an accuracy of 89% during validation. This system demonstrates a practical, efficient, and scalable approach to reducing avian fatalities near power grids while maintaining grid reliability
