DoorCam vs iHornets

The ERA DoorCam is a WIFI compatible smart home video doorbell which is completely programmable from your smartphone. It allows you to have a two way visual conversation, in real time, with the capability of either snapshotting or video recording caller. With a 180 degree viewing angle at 720p HD resoultion and image adjustment, you can be sure to see your caller day or night. Not only that, the device has both PIR and Video Motion Detection, which can focus on speciifc areas due to 'out motion region feature'. Captures can then be stored either via snapshots and short videos when activated. Our cloud services allow you to save, view and share your recordings at anytime. Live viewing on demand which allows you as a user to look in at anytime, anywhere to put your mind at ease. DoorCam Key Features: - Two-Way Talk - PIR & Video Motion Detection - Selectable Motion Region - IR Night Vision - Wide Angle Camera Lens - On Demand Live View - Fully programmable via Smartphone

iHornets is a mobile application designed to track temporal variations in the abundance of hornets (Vespa app.) in apiaries distributed across Europe. Quantifying these changes is essential for monitoring the impact of hornets, particularly invasive species, and for understanding the causes behind these variations both in space and time. This information is key to preventing and managing the damage that these species may cause in the beekeeping sector. The application is very easy to use. After registering an apiary and providing its location at the municipal level, the beekeeper can begin counting hornets at the registered site. To do so, they must stand in front of a hive and, once the app’s timer is activated, count the hornets flying in front of the hive entrance for 30 seconds. This process can be repeated as many times as desired, thus generating numerous records over time. Participants in the project will be able to consult their data through the mobile application and graphically visualize the evolution of hornets abundance at their apiaries. Based on the information collected by different beekeepers from various locations across Europe, the project team will be able to produce a map of hornet expansion and local abundances in each territory, which will be made publicly available. iHornets has been developed by the University of Girona (UdG), in collaboration with the Forest Science and Technology Centre of Catalonia (CTFC) and the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB), within the framework of project PID2023-149487OA-I00, funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and by FEDER/UE. Its development was inspired by the mobile application Alerta Velutina (www.alertavelutina.net), created with the support of the Department of Climate Action, Food and Rural Agenda through the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (Operation 01.02.01 on Technology Transfer of the Rural Development Programme of Catalonia 2014–2022).
