How Trap-Eye™ works  

  • Trap-Eye™ devices take pictures of individual sticky traps
  • Trap-Eye™ devices form a dense network of scouting devices communicating with each other, getting data out of the glasshouse without the need for a whole glasshouse internet coverage
  • Pictures taken at a grower-defined interval are sent to a cloud where an AI system identifies and counts insects
  • For optimum results, use Trap-Eye™ devices with Trap-ID™ - our unique yellow sticky traps
  • By installing 40 Trap-Eye™ devices per hectare, network delivers 
    • good sample size of pest and beneficial insect situation in the greenhouse
    • full overview of the greenhouse, ensuring no hotspots are missed
