Apiculture Technology International Introduces

Next-generation Beehive Intelligence

Hive losses do not happen without warning, colonies emit hidden chemical, environmental, and acoustic signals long before collapse.

HiveShield™ is an Advanced In-Hive Senor:

  • Captures these hidden signals continuously
  • Processes raw sensor output into structured, meaningful data
  • Transmits data securely out of the hive to LoRa-Link™

LoRa-Link™ transmits hive data from the apiary to AESRS™ via:

  • Long-range LoRaWAN networks
  • Cellular backhaul using NB-IoT
  • Local WAN connections over WiFi

AESRS™ is a web-based epizootiological surveillance and response system:

  • Converts sensor data into map-based, actionable insight for early warning and informed intervention
  • Correlates hive-level data across time and geography
  • Identifies emerging disease, stress, and exposure patterns

For detailed information see ATI Product Center.

HiveShield™ – Advanced In-Hive Sensing

HiveShield™ is a field-deployable hive monitor that continuously measures the signals that matter most:

  • Volatile chemical signatures linked to brood decay, disease, and agrochemical exposure
  • Temperature, humidity, and pressure anomalies tied to stress and failure risk
  • Acoustic events such as hornet attacks, swarming, and alarm behavior

By combining chemical, environmental, and acoustic sensing with onboard intelligence, HiveShield™ detects problems days or weeks before visible collapse.

LoRa-Link™ – Long-Range, Low-Power Connectivity

LoRa-Link™ is the communications layer that makes large-scale monitoring possible. It provides:

  • Reliable HiveShield™ to LoRa-Link™ telemetry across your apiary using LoRa.
  • Flexible backhaul options, including LoRaWAN, NB-IoT and WiFi, for sites with LoRaWAN, cellular or local network access
  • Seamless integration with HiveShield™ and other ATI sensor platforms

HiveShield™ data can also be accessed locally via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), allowing direct retrieval, configuration, and diagnostics through the mobile app without relying on external network coverage.

Together, HiveShield™ and LoRa-Link™ form a scalable communications platform for real-time hive monitoring, from a single remote apiary to regional and national networks.

AESRS™ – From Sensors to Situational Awareness

Data from HiveShield™ devices flows through LoRa-Link into the Apiculture Epizootiological Surveillance and Response System (AESRS™), where it is analyzed, correlated, and visualized. The result is a live, map-based view of hive health and emerging regional threats.

AESRS™ supports beekeepers, researchers, and regulators by turning raw sensor data into clear, evidence-based insight.

Why AESRS™ Is Urgently Needed
Pollinators support 30–35% of the world’s food supply, yet beekeepers around the world face rising hive losses due to chemical, biological, and environmental stressors. Traditional observation-based methods are too slow and often too late.

AESRS™ enables continuous, autonomous, and evidence-based detection of colony stress—helping to prevent collapse and improve resilience.
