Today, Samsung presented an ambitious new project called Wildlife Watch, which uses modern technology to combat poaching in the African bush. Top cameras of professional quality in Samsung smartphones Galaxy The S20 Fan Edition will broadcast live 24 hours a day from the Balule Game Reserve, which is part of the famous Kruger National Park in South Africa. Thus, anyone can become a virtual guardian and protect endangered wild animals from poaching by watching them in their natural habitat and enjoying beautiful live footage from home.
In the preparation of the project, Samsung joined forces with the Africam company, which in the past has done a lot of pioneering work in the introduction of modern technologies in African countries. One of the latest smartphones in the series will play a big role in monitoring animals in the African bush Galaxy. The participation of the conservation organization Black Mambas, made up almost entirely of women, is also extremely important, using non-violent methods to combat poaching, the incidence of which has increased significantly in the pandemic era - hunters take advantage of the sudden absence of tourists. Thanks to the Wildlife Project Watch anyone can see what the rangers' work entails, see endangered animals and, if necessary, contribute financially to their protection.
Africam installed four smartphones in different locations in the bush Galaxy S20 FE, thus doubling its current infrastructure in the Balule Reserve. The phone is equipped with a high-end professional-quality camera, improved artificial intelligence and powerful 30X Space Zoom technology. These devices are perfect for live transmission of animals in the bush, as their main advantages include excellent low-light performance and high-quality shots even at a greater distance. The members of the organization can thus provide the management of the reserve with a significantly better record, which then serves as evidence for the police or the courts.
Those who join the project and become a virtual ranger can send a message to the rangers of the reserve when they see an animal that is at risk of poaching. He can also share pictures from the cameras on social networks or reach out to his friends and loved ones to also join the initiative and financially support the Black Mambas unit.
The project will run from today until April 8. Samsung hopes that during this time it will be possible to draw the attention of as many people as possible to the plight of African animals.
