The hidden cost of AI: In conversation with Professor Mark Graham Biotracks: Tracking Bees With Drones
Insects and bird populations are in rapid decline, seriously impacting global ecosystems and international food security. To help solve the problem we need a detailed understanding of what is happening to our pollinators.
But how do you track a bee?
Dr Tonya Lander and her cross-department team at the Oxford University Biology department and the Department of Engineering Science have been investigating.
Their BioTracks technology has an answer: the smallest ever harmonic radar tags.
This technology could improve our understanding of insect and bird migration as well opening up a world of exciting new future applications.
