Technological advances are opening up new possibilities for biodiversity monitoring. A new article in the scientific journal Trends in Ecology and Evolution discusses four emerging tools and technologies (computer vision, acoustic monitoring, radar and molecular methods) that offer unprecedented opportunities for insect monitoring. Technology integration, open data and international standards are needed to realize the full potential of new technologies for insect monitoring. As an example of computer vision, the authors of the article give our DIOPSIS cameras. In addition, a DIOPSIS camera shines on the cover of the magazine.
