AMI-trap unboxing - Automated moth monitoring system

Thanks so much to @JoeBowden for recording this video of his unboxing of the AMI-Trap (Automated Monitoring of Insects Trap). Joe and others in Canada, USA, UK and Denmark have been testing out this system and others like it for monitoring moths. It's been a fun summer getting used to the systems, seeing what works well and where we want to make improvements in the future. The AMI-traps are currently built by UKCEH, building from a design originally published by researchers at Aarhus university in Denmark. We (UKCEH), will have a website up soon with more information about these systems for people who want to find out more - once its up I will add the link in a comment below. But for now, Joe's video gives a great introduction into what the system is. Thanks Joe!




This video is so great - I don't know what I was imagining that you were building, but this is so much bigger and more involved than whatever I was vaguely thinking. Really cool to see! 

Side comment - could we make conservation tech unboxings a thing?
