Kickoff-Meeting of the new EU project HIVEOPOLIS

Our ambition in this research project is to create a modern society of honey bee colonies which is fully adapted to present-day challenges, such as pesticides, parasites, climate change, or urban environments as well as present-day needs, ranging from urban, high-end beekeeping, to professional beekeeping, teaching kids honey bee biology, or professional bee breeding.
Here, we establish, for the first time, a smart honey bee colony system where humans, robots, honey bees, and colonies are able to interact and form a higher level of social cooperation.
