This project has been developed to reduce the risks of hive movement, disease, and theft for beekeepers and to provide them with a more effective way to monitor and manage their hives. With the help of smart sensors developed, hive weight, movement, and closing status can be monitored, and issues can be detected, allowing alerts to be sent to beekeepers.

Problem Area of the Project

The project aims to address significant issues in beekeeping, such as hive movement, disease, and theft, to enable beekeepers to manage their hives effectively and minimize losses.

Social, Economic, and Environmental Impact of the Problem

Social Impact: Beekeepers will have more information about their hives through smart sensors, enabling them to increase productivity and engage in healthier beekeeping practices.

Economic Impact: Early detection and resolution of issues can increase beekeepers' income and reduce operating costs.

Environmental Impact: Efficient beekeeping management can contribute to maintaining natural balance and supporting bee populations.

Our Solution Strategy

Hives equipped with smart sensors continuously monitor hive movement, weight, and closing status, and the data is analyzed in a centralized system. When an issue is detected, alerts are sent to beekeepers, and in the case of theft risk, a signal is sent to the center.

Unique Aspects of the Solution Strategy

This solution allows beekeepers to have comprehensive and real-time information about their hives through the use of smart sensor technology. Features such as early issue detection and signaling of theft risk offer more effective and prompt solutions compared to traditional methods.

Project's SDG Impact

Good Health and Well-Being
