Live Edge AI on ESP32

Guard every hive.
Save the harvest.

BeeGuardian AI is a low-cost embedded platform that fuses acoustic TinyML with temperature, humidity and weight sensors to catch colony problems days before a beekeeper could.

The platform

Four senses. One score.

Sensor fusion turns raw signals into a single Hive Health Score so beekeepers act on insight, not noise.

Acoustic Edge AI

MFCC + neural network on the ESP32 classifies Normal, Stress and Noise from bee sounds in under 150 ms.

Sensor fusion

Temperature, humidity, weight and audio confidence combine into a single 0–100 Health Score.

MQTT real-time

Telemetry streams to HiveMQ. The dashboard updates live. Remote commands flow back to the hive.

Live analytics

Beautiful, animated charts for weight trends, foraging gains, thermal stability and colony sentiment.

Solar autonomy

18650 + TP4056 + solar panel. Deep sleep between reads. Weeks of runtime without sun.

Early alerts

Popup, timeline and email-ready alerts for heat, humidity spikes, rapid weight loss and stress buzzing.

Food security

Healthy pollinators mean stable harvests. BeeGuardian protects colonies that protect our food.

Open & modular

Arduino firmware, Edge Impulse project, MQTT topics and web dashboard — all documented and hackable.

Hardware

Rugged, solar, under $40 in parts.

Off-the-shelf components, weatherproof enclosure, deep-sleep friendly firmware. Designed for beekeepers in the field — not lab benches.
