Smart Beehive

The system utilizes strategically positioned temperature sensors inside the hives to monitor real-time temperature fluctuations. Based on this data, it can trigger control devices such as fans or heaters to maintain the temperature within optimal levels for the healthy development of bees.

Humidity is crucial for the comfort and health of bees, directly affecting their ability to regulate hive temperature and prevent diseases. The system monitors humidity using specific sensors and adjusts environmental conditions as necessary, ensuring that bees have a suitable environment to thrive.

Thermal sensation is calculated taking into account not only ambient temperature but also factors such as humidity and air movement. The system utilizes advanced algorithms to interpret this data and adjust conditions within the hive to ensure that bees feel comfortable and can perform their activities efficiently.

Luminosity sensors are installed in the hives to measure the levels of light that bees are exposed to. Based on this information, the system can adjust artificial lighting within the hive, if necessary, to mimic natural conditions or provide the ideal amount of light for activities such as honey production and larval rearing.

Monitoring hive load allows beekeepers to track honey production and colony development over time. The system utilizes strategically positioned weight sensors under the hives to accurately measure load variations. This data is useful for making informed decisions about management and interventions when necessary.

Noises emitted by bees are captured by sensitive acoustic sensors, which transform them into interpretable data by the system. These noises provide valuable insights into the state and behavior of colonies, helping beekeepers detect signs of health problems such as predator infestation or diseases, and act quickly to mitigate these issues.
