That's where Nerds Without Borders comes in, an organization of, er, nerds, that developed a probe that can be buried by the turtle nest. Equipped with a basic motion sensor and connected to a smartphone module, the probe then sends back the seismic information to HQ. This way, it's only when the hardware detects that the turtles are crawling towards the surface that the beaches are shut down. Not only is it now possible to keep the beaches open when they would have otherwise been closed, but it's also keeping the turtles safe and giving scientists a great chance to see the creatures in action. The team at Nerds Without Borders are now hoping to build a more professional-looking version of the hardware in the hope that the US Fish and Wildlife service will adopt it nationwide.
