My Research Internship Poster - on building a 'smart' monitoring system for bee colony observation
Bridging together robotics and biology to study bees, at EPFL's MOBOTS laboratory.
Dear all,
I am thrilled to present the culmination of my eight-week summer laboratory internship: the Research Poster. The opportunity to showcase this work at the Research Symposium, especially in front of esteemed guests like EPFL representatives and our very own Laidlaw CEO, Mrs. Susanna Kempe, was truly an honour.
It would be a pleasure to answer any questions or comments ! :)
Warm regards, Nicolas.

Wow, this is fascinating, Nicolas! I've read a bit about the challenges honeybees face but had no idea about the technology and methods being employed to study them in-depth. Your poster lays everything out so clearly and compellingly. I'm intrigued by the intersection of biology and tech here. Keep up the fantastic work – our bees (and we!) need researchers like you.
Thank you so much for your comment and feedback, Princess Agina ! Very appreciated. The biology here mostly resides in the applications of the monitoring system, and in making sure the bees are accepting this 'artificial' environment and minimizing the chances of them acting differently as they would in the depth of a natural beehive, due to outside stresses/perturbations. Best, Nicolas.
