BARÜ’s Smart Pest Control System Receives Utility Model Registration
19 Haziran 2026
A smart pest control system developed at Bartın University (BARÜ) to combat insects and flies has been granted a utility model registration by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office (TÜRKPATENT).
The invention, titled “Smart Pest and Fly Control System for Urban Areas,” was developed by Prof. Dr. Said Ceyhan from the Department of Economics at BARÜ’s Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences together with his student, Furkan Bülbül. The system has been officially registered as a utility model by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office (TÜRKPATENT). Offering an autonomous, cost-effective, and intelligent solution to one of the major challenges faced by urban areas, the invention stands out with its innovative design and technological features.
Innovative Solution Against Pests With Smart Pest Control System
Developed within BARÜ, the innovative system integrates advanced technology into conventional pest control methods. Designed to reduce human intervention and operational costs, the invention provides an autonomous protection system supported by an Internet of Things (IoT)-based infrastructure. Through the IoT software embedded in the system, distance and level sensors continuously monitor critical data related to the spraying process. Information such as pesticide levels, remaining usage time, mechanical failures, and technical malfunctions is stored on a cloud-based platform, allowing users to access real-time data whenever needed.
More Efficient Pest Control with Advanced Technology
The system can be monitored and managed remotely via smartphones, tablets, and computers, enabling users to control stations from a distance and respond immediately to potential issues. Equipped with a high-pressure spraying mechanism, the smart system is capable of effectively treating an area of approximately 1,000 square meters. It is expected to reduce spraying costs, minimize labor requirements, and contribute to the protection of public health.
Emphasizing that BARÜ continues to develop projects that transform scientific knowledge and technology into social benefit, Rector Prof. Dr. Ahmet Akkaya congratulated Prof. Dr. Said Ceyhan and Furkan Bülbül on receiving the utility model registration from TÜRKPATENT and expressed his hope that the invention would be beneficial for its users.
