ULmonitor for bees
Healthy lifestyle trend and the increased
awareness of the importance of bees in nature
cause the development of interest in
beekeeping.
New apiaries are being created and numerous
scientific projects are being carried out.
Beekeeping derives from tradition, but recently
also from modern technologies.
ULmonitor is a "apiary on the screen" - it allows
you to use digital solutions to effectively manage
an apiary, observe the bee colonies, supervise
the situation in the beehive, as well as to
conduct scientific panel research, the results of
which may help bees survive in an endangered
environment.
ULmonitor in scientific research
ULmonitor is a system that can be used in
scientific research. It allows you to collect and
compare parameters in hives from the selected
periods, as well as to transfer and process this
data.
Temperature, humidity and weight is mainly what
our system records.
In the future, we plan to expand its capabilities
by also adding a sensor of carbon dioxide
concentration. Everything is going to depend on
the necessities reported by beekeepers and
research teams.
ULmonitor in an apiary
Parameters such as temperature, humidity and
weihgt can be practically used, for instance, for a
general analysis of the condition of the bee
colony inside the hive without unnecessary
interference. This is particularly important in
winter and in unfavorable weather conditions.
From the reading of the parameters on the
screen or phone, we can easily conclude:
• if the the overwintering passed without any
problems?
• in which moment the queen bee starts to lay
her eggs
• in which moment the queen bee finishes laying
their eggs
• if there is sufficient ventilation in the hive?
The parameters collected from hives in our
apiary (temperature, humidity and possibly
weight) are available online after logging in to the
ULmonitor console on the website: http:
//konsola.ulmonitor.pl All data is publicly
available. They can be observed in real time on
charts or downloaded in pdf or csv files.

What is ULmonitor ?
ULmonitor is a monitoring system for beehives.
It includes the device and the application, which
allow for wireless observation, checking,
collection and visualization of the hive’s
temperature, humidity and weihgt. System can
be also used in the incubators of queen bees, in
pollen dryers or for the monitoring of any rooms.
Other then this Ulmonitor can be additionally
used for these purposes:
• a temperature preview and also optional
preview
of the humidity of a given hive / room
• registration of the temperature and also
optional
preview of the humidity of a given hive / room
with generated reports and charts
• user console for ongoing monitoring, archiving
and visualization of the data from hives
How does ULmonitor work ?
The system can be controlled with a smartphone
or a PC. It is characterized by high accuracy in a
very wide range of temperatures.
Battery located in the recorder ensures
continuous work for up to 3 years. The Radio
channel and NFC technology available in
Smartphones allow you to receive and save
precise information about the condition in the
indicated hive or room.
Depending on the chosen version, you can use
the system in various ways.
