Scientists plan to fit sensors on 5,000 bees in the southern island state of Tasmania over the Australian summer. The radio frequency identification sensors work like an electronic tag for cars on a toll road, recording when insects pass a checkpoint. That will allow scientists to build a threedimensional(三维) image of the insects' movements, a process described as “swarm sensing”.
The scientists are working on shrinking the sensor to 1 mm square so they can be attached to smaller insects, including mosquitoes.
