Description

Hive monitoring helps beekeepers help their bees

The Eyesonhives Scout B is the easiest way to monitor your hive, view your bees remotely and keep an eye on your hive’s health.

Eyesonhives is inspired by the emerging field of remote healthcare, and has a mission to support the transition to sustainable agriculture. Beekeepers and researchers can benefit from the ability to remotely assess beehives with their own eyes, and save time with automatically quantified bee activity and trends.

Designed for citizen scientists and researchers who want a better future for bees

Eyesonhives is focused on making it very easy to monitor bees, easy for you, and easy on the bees. The system does not disturb or require modifications to the hive, and is easy to set up. Simply place the device two feet away from the hive and point at the hive entrance. The device runs from a USB power source (e.g. solar or mains) and transmits data via WiFi (or cellular hotspot).

 

Check your hive from anywhere

You’ll be able to check in on your hive from anywhere.  You can see what your bees have been up to, conduct your own experiments and get measurable results.  Imagine being able to measure the rate of your bees’ spring build up, observe trends, and see an alert if your hive swarms!

The Eyesonhives Platform displays colony activity patterns tracked over time, as well as a daily highlight reel of videos. Hours of video is automatically translated into an easy to understand, visual, real-time summary for beekeepers.

 

Eyesonhives Scout B and Data Analytics

Eyesonhives uses a camera and computer to visually monitor what goes on at the bee hive all day, every day. Activity is measured by tracking the number of flying bees.

Colony activity patterns are tracked over time using computerized video analysis. Hours of video is automatically translated into an easy to understand, visual, real-time summary for beekeepers.

A key insight is that it’s not just the ‘count’ of individual bees that matters, it’s their flight behavior. Eyesonhives doesn’t just look at bees, it measures flight behavior of the hive as a superorganism!

 

The Data Analytics subscription

The Data Analytics subscription includes the web app data visualization, alerts and video storage. It’s the best part of Eyesonhives – you can see the growth trends of your hive, better understand your hive’s health and see daily data and video highlights from your hive.  It also includes access to our online community where you can see other hives on the platform!

Bee activity data is backed up and accessible from anywhere via the Eyesonhives Platform. Researchers can export their own data for further analysis, or license Citizen Science datasets.

 

Setup is easy

Requires Power and WiFi.  The system uses WiFi to communicate alerts, upload video, and report trending data. Setup requires access to 120V power or a 5V 2A USB source (e.g. solar power) and a usable WiFi signal at the hive.

International Details

Eyesonhives uses in-field video analytics to process video data, which means the system can work anywhere!   While our our team and data center is based in the US, we have begun a soft roll out for select international Beta customers.

We have been focused on the US Market to iron out the kinks and provide enhanced support.

If you’re ready to be a non-US Beta customer, we’ll need your help in navigating the import details of your country.  We will also ship your unit without an AC plug, so you’ll need to provide a USB power source such as a wall plug, or a solar battery / power source to use the device.
