Abstract
Illegal logging is timber theft activity that can harm many aspects. One of the issues is logging on a large scale can damage a forest ecosystem and affect human life. One way to reduce illegal logging is implementing a technology. This research was designing a prototype that can detect the occurrence of illegal logging. This system uses a combination of sound sensor and vibration sensor. Sound sensor, it applies to identify the chainsaw while the vibration sensor, it uses to detect the falling trees. This research was designed with Arduino Nano and GSM module as information providers for forest guard patrols. The threshold value of 63.4 dB for the chainsaw and the threshold value of 4400 for vibration sensors can provide the excellent combination to detect illegal logging.Keywords
