Summary |
The system uses GPS to calculate sunrise and sunset times as the basis for detecting the beehive information. By detecting the change of the weight of the beehive or the concentration of CO2, the system can detect the situation of the bee colony leaving and returning to the nest, so as to provide the timing for the beekeeper to move the beehives |
Scientific Breakthrough |
This system detects the weight of the beehive or the concentration of CO2. Based on this information, the system can detect the situation of the bee colony leaving and returning to the nest, so as to provide the timing for the beekeeper to move the beehives. In order to reduce power consumption, this system actives one hour before the sunrise and sunset and information is sampled every 4 minutes. |
