Common questions about our remote beehive monitoring technology, products, and services. If you don't find what you're looking for, please feel free to contact our support team.
HiveBeat® is a state-of-the-art remote beehive monitoring system designed to help both hobbyist and commercial beekeepers manage their hives more efficiently. Our technology provides real-time data on hive conditions, including temperature, humidity, and movement, as well as digital Inspection tracking - allowing beekeepers to monitor the health and productivity of their bees from any location around the globe.
HiveBeat® uses advanced "Bee-safe" sensors placed inside the hive to collect data on various parameters such as temperature, humidity and movement. This data is transmitted wirelessly to a HiveBeat Controller (Hobby or Professional), which sends data to the HiveBeat dashboard. The dashboard can be accessed through your smartphone or computer and is used to monitor beehive health and set temperature, humidity and movement parameters.
HiveBeat® offers a wide range of benefits, including optimising beehive management and ensuring colony health:
1) Hour by hour colony health and happiness insights straight to your phone, all year round no matter what the weather outside!
2) A safe and easy to use digital record store for beehive Inspection notes, so the beekeeper can analyse past activates and prepare for future events.
3) Less colony interference, leading to more effective Inspections, increasing honey crop and colony happiness.
4) Vital information on colony strength remotely, allowing the beekeeper to prepare actions to achieve homeostasis.
HiveBeat® installation is simple and effective (no screws!). The HiveBeat Sensor is placed within the brood chamber of each of your beehives. The HiveBeat Hobby Controller is then connected to a mains power supply and is connected to a Wi-Fi network. The Professional Controller uses solar-power technology and can be placed in remote locations and uses a cellular network connection.
