Buzzing insights: Tracking bees with robotic flowers and hive sensors
- By Anthony King , Horizon -
Think of wildlife tracking and what probably comes to mind are documentaries following the majestic movements of elephants through the savannah, the graceful migrations of sea turtles in the deep blue and the prowling of big cats in dense jungles.
Yet, in the grand tapestry of nature, one creature that’s vital to the ecosystem but less in the spotlight can be found gently toiling away: the humble bee. Researchers are keeping a watchful eye on these buzzing wonders in a unique effort to understand their behaviour and ensure their survival.
Big buzz
Bees pollinate 80% of all flowering plants, including more than 130 types of fruits and vegetables. Unsung heroes of the natural world, bees and other pollinators are responsible for up to €550 billion a year in global food production.
‘We need to understand better how bees move and pollinate plants,’ said Dr Mathieu Lihoreau, a behavioural ecologist at the University of Toulouse.
Cut to a farm outside Toulouse, the southern French city better known as the location of bigger winged objects: Airbus planes.
But this is no ordinary farm. It’s an experimental site with, for example, no real flowers. Bumblebees and honeybees will be released into the fields – spread over 25 hectares – and tracked while flying to robotic flowers to taste a sugary reward.
The experiment is part of a research project that received EU funding to improve understanding of how bees forage and interact. Lihoreau leads the project, which is called BEE-MOVE and runs for five years until the end of September 2026.
He will trace dozens of bees simultaneously with a radar as they navigate around hundreds of robo-flowers set out in the fields. Knowing why bees buzz off in a certain direction can help improve crop pollination, conserve wild bee populations and save some rare plant species.
Captivating creatures
While Lihoreau has always been fascinated by animal behaviour, as a student he pictured himself observing whales in the Pacific Ocean or primates in African jungles. But then as a young scientist he became captivated by much smaller creatures after joining a laboratory that studied ants.
His attention now is on how bees navigate and make decisions as they seek nectar and pollen, orienting themselves using the sun, landscape features and even other bees. Because they collect food for themselves and harvest nectar and pollen for their colony, bees memorise the landscape.
Research suggests bees can even have emotions and doubts, detect electric fields and count.
‘I’m fascinated by them,’ Lihoreau said.
In total, there are around 20 000 bee species and wild bees are critical for a healthy ecosystem. They’re vital assistants in the reproduction of plants by carrying pollen from one flower to another.
Previously, researchers used large and expensive harmonic radars to track an antenna placed on the back of an individual bee. This allowed scientists to follow the bee as it weaved its way around a meadow, searching for flowers before returning home.
But following just one bee gives merely a sliver of insight into what’s going on. Honeybees live in hives of thousands of worker bees and bumblebees reside in nests with dozens or hundreds.
How bees act as a team or make efficient foraging decisions in the company of other pollinators are open questions.
Radar tracking
The BEE-MOVE radar will do its tracking without any of the bees having antennas. It uses the same technology as reversing sensors on cars, sending out energy waves to detect objects by bouncing off them.
Lihoreau said that, to his knowledge, this is the first time such a radar has been used in ecology.
‘I want to show bees do not move randomly in the environment and to understand the rules that guide their sophisticated foraging,’ he said.
The radar will track honeybees and bumblebees separately as they fly to the robo-flowers and then together. The planned robotic plants are small metal containers that recognise individual tagged bees as they alight on a platform and allow them in to sup sugar water.
Eventually, Lihoreau wants to investigate the effect on bee behaviour of adding contaminants like pesticides to the sugar water.
Pesticide threats
Pesticides, including insecticides, used against pests like aphids are often neurotoxins.
‘Bees are in danger because they forage on plants that we treat with pesticides and then they feed on neurotoxins,’ said Lihoreau.
The European Food Safety Authority said in 2018 that neonicotinoid insecticides pose a threat to wild bees and honeybees. Neonicotinoids are suspected of scrambling the bees’ navigation systems.
Everything that bees learn when navigating a meadow, garden or cityscape is retained. This may ultimately leave them particularly vulnerable to neurotoxins.
‘Because they have this tiny brain, probably every neuron is important,’ said Lihoreau.
In agriculture, healthy bees are crucial for good yields in crops such as strawberries and almonds.
‘Orchards hire beekeepers to bring in hives, but they need numerous healthy bees,’ said Dr Joao Encarnacao, a sensor expert at Irideon, a technology company in the Spanish city of Barcelona.
Hive sensors
If a hive is unhealthy, it can’t pollinate enough flowers and the fruit crop is reduced. But a farmer will become aware of a shortfall in pollinators only when it’s too late.
Encarnacao leads an EU-funded project – iPollinate – positioning sensors on hives to report real-time foraging of honeybees. The tracking technique relies on artificial intelligence and multiple coin-sized sensors placed on the hive.
The information can be used by an orchard owner to spotlight the healthiest bee colonies or to learn the best locations for hives.
‘You get metrics that show you how productive the beehives are for pollination,’ said Encarnacao. ‘So far, nobody has enough information to know how to optimise things like the placement or the orientation of beehives, yet this might be the difference between having good pollination and bad.’
The project, which is due to end in December 2023 after three years, aims by then to have built a prototype of the sensor system. The plan is for the service to be available to commercial partners of the project in 2024.
The sensors have been tested in onion seeds in France and Israel, in berry fruit in countries including France, Spain and Portugal and in almonds and sunflowers in the US state of California.
Californian almonds are a key target for iPollinate because about 2.5 million beehives are routinely set out across more than 500 000 hectares of almond groves – a big commercial opportunity for anybody who can improve pollination and, by extension, the harvest.
Both iPollinate and BEE-MOVE highlight the crucial links between bees and the ecosystem as a whole, reinforcing the need to tackle biodiversity loss driven by human influences including pollution.
‘Bees are on the frontline of an ecological crisis,’ said Lihoreau of BEE-MOVE.

You can get it from the Savannah Bee Company (https://savannahbee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADvthujdjU9AaOq1sles9_n86lno7&gclid=Cj0KCQjw2ou2BhCCARIsANAwM2HBVsQbKhQrJIbHQYRvSIhn1O4ZXXntrx5P3In87TR5Xfw-uPesvBAaAoBAEALw_wcB)
I’ve also heard stories about aged balsamic infused honey and I’m trying to find a place to get it.
DP x DC prompt: Beekeeper Danny
Ooookay, Danny has moved to Gotham for <insert reason here> and is faced with a problem. Yes, Gotham has higher levels of ambient ectoplasm than your average city, but it's nowhere near those of Amity Park who has a goddamn artificial hell mouth smack in the center of it. Also, the ectoplasm which IS there is contaminated with some nasty shit that makes Danny feel ill when he takes too much of it in. Having his friends back in Amity Park ship him flasks of pure ecto on the sly is difficult to say the least, so he starts thinking about ways to both concentrate and purify Gotham's ecto so he's not one shipment interruption from being in really bad shape.
He get's his solution from Sam. On his bi-weekly video call with her and Tucker, she gets to ranting about bee conservation. Tucker makes a joking comment about honey being basically bee vomit, and Sam tears into him saying "That is a gross oversimplification at best and outright bee-slander at worst!" This perks Danny's curiosity, so he looks up the biological process by which bees turn nectar into honey...and he's found his answer. Blob ghosts are basically the filter feeders of the Ghost Zone/Infinite Realms. If he can get a bunch of them to behave kinda like honey bees, his ecto supply should be assured.
It works...a bit too well...
Now Danny has a swarm of glowing green honey bees that are roughly the size of carpenter bees buzzing happily about him. Their queen is roughly the size of a large hummingbird. He heaves a weary sigh and starts looking up how to ACTUALLY keep bees and making skips out of ghost-friendly material for them to build their hive in on top of his apartment building.
But, won't Danny get complaints from his neighbors? Here's the kicker. Unless you are a 1) ghost, 2) halfa, 3) wearing specialized Fenton Ecto-Visual Goggles or 4) a mage, you cannot see, hear or feel the bees! They're buzzing around Gotham happily, slurping up the ecto to take back to the hive for processing. And they slurp it up from EVERYWHERE...including certain people.
Jason Todd is slightly confused but not about to look a gift horse in the mouth. Over the last few months, the Pit Rage has been decreasing gradually. He doesn't think much about it until he shows up at the BatCave for an all hands meeting that has been called because John Constantine needed to brief them on something...only for Con-job to take one look at Red Hood and shout that he's "COVERED IN FUCKING BEES!!!"

I got distracted but I’m back to tell the story of my great Mead Folly
It was summer of some amount of years ago. my mom loves the beach so until recent years we tried to go to a different beach every year. that year we were at myrtle beach. there’s a boardwalk thingy there with different shops and restaurants in it and whatnot. one of the shops there was Savannah Bee Company. they’re a honey company based in, you guessed it, savannah; which I had shopped at before in said city and liked a lot. so we went in because I love honey. And they had a mead section with a mead tasting counter. And my mom said “you like mead, if you want to do the mead tasting I’ll pay for it” and I said hell yeah. Nobody else was there so it was a one on one mead tasting with me and the woman behind the counter. I began drinking small glasses of meads and learning about them and chatting with the mead counter woman. She complimented my Star Trek shirt. I drank more mead. We talked about bees. I drank a mead that was banana and something else flavored. Peanut butter maybe? It was really weird. I complimented her necklace. I drank a raspberry mead that was very tasty and also very strong. A couple more weird meads. I started to feel a bit wobbly. I bought a 35 dollar bottle of the raspberry mead. I depart the counter and rejoin my mom on the other side of the shop where she was buying beeswax lipbalms. As we exit the store she says “I think she was flirting with you. By the way” and felt like I was going to melt through the wood of the walkway and into the water underneath. and that’s my story
have I told the story on here about my Great Mead Folly
