Spotta develops specialised systems for detecting, identifying and monitoring insect pests. Insect pests represent a huge cost to the global economy. In this project we will investigate how our technology can be applied to improve decision making in the use of pesticides by providing real-time information on insect populations. This has the potential to dramatically reduce the damage done by insect pests and the costs of treatment. It will also enable a huge reduction in pesticide use (~25%), a reduction in deforestation and the protection of desirable species, such as bees.

Spotta开发用于检测、识别和监测害虫的专业系统。虫害给全球经济带来巨大损失。在这个项目中，我们将研究如何通过提供昆虫种群的实时信息，将我们的技术应用于改善农药使用决策。这有可能大大减少虫害造成的损害和治疗费用。它还将大大减少杀虫剂的使用（约25%），减少森林砍伐和保护蜜蜂等理想物种。
