<![CDATA[The development of electronic instrumentation technology is now experiencing a very rapid development, socializing and not a strange thing anymore. Technological advances are also very helpful in various sectors, one of which is the agricultural sector. Rice or in Latin, oryza sativa, is one of the most important cultivated plants in today's civilization. In the process of planting rice, there are challenges that will be faced by farmers, one of which is bird pests. The increasing number of cases of bird pest attacks can cause serious damage to rice so that the number of farmers' rice harvests has decreased. Attacks occur during shady weather conditions and birds attack in groups. The impact of this attack resulted in the rice drying up and even empty seeds. Various ways have been done by farmers to prevent bird pests from attacking rice plants. In current technological developments, these alternatives can be changed by utilizing technological sophistication, one of which is by designing an automation system tool using a microcontroller that can be tailored to specific needs. In this case, the researchers designed an automation tool that can facilitate the work of farmers to protect their rice plants from bird pests. The mechanism for making this security sensor system is quite simple by using the Arduino Uno as a microcontroller kit, and an ultrasonic sensor that will be installed as a bird pest detection tool.]]>
