The formal documentation marks a milestone in the company’s commitment to technical transparency and support for wind farm developers, operators and environmental authorities.
The FALCO system incorporates improved flexibility and performance and also includes five model configurations — F4, F6, F8, F4+F6 and F4+F8 — to adapt to different rotor diameters, species profiles, and project requirements.
Main Features:
Detection module: Maximum distance up to 1 kilometre with graphics of detectability at any distance and detection distance ranges with detectability greater than 90 percent for species like golden eagles and red kites.
360º horizontal coverage and up to 90º vertical coverage with real-time detection of all bird species and sizes including the rotor swept zone.
Collision detectability in videos greater than 95 percent.
Deterrence module with automated sound emission (250–12,500 Hz). Efficiency proved by independent evaluations (REWI 2024, ECOCOM 2016).
Stop module that automatically shuts down the wind turbine based on real-time bird collision risk evaluation with 4 stop protocols, from basic to high protection.
Data integration with wind farm SCADA/PLC systems via multiple protocols.
All events, videos and operational data are stored and accessible via DTBird’s NEST platform, with protected access and integrated analytics.
