gaiaTRAP – AI-Powered Digital Insect Monitoring Trap

gaiaTRAP is an innovative, AI-powered digital insect monitoring system designed and manufactured by NEUROPUBLIC S.A. for automated pest detection, identification, and population monitoring.

Combining IoT technology, embedded imaging sensors, computer vision, and Artificial Intelligence, gaiaTRAP enables remote identification and counting of olive fruit flies (Bactrocera oleae), significantly reducing the need for manual field inspections.

The device integrates a digital camera, temperature and humidity sensors, GPS positioning, wireless connectivity, and autonomous battery operation. Data and images are transmitted to a cloud-based monitoring platform, where AI algorithms automatically analyse insect activity and provide actionable information.

The system features an IP67-rated weatherproof enclosure, wireless communication through mobile networks, and a user-friendly digital platform supporting geospatial visualisation, historical analysis, alerts, and remote monitoring of multiple traps.

Developed with in-house hardware, embedded systems, AI models, and software engineering capabilities, gaiaTRAP demonstrates NEUROPUBLIC's expertise in integrating physical IoT devices with advanced digital intelligence.

The technology offers potential for further R&D in intelligent environmental sensing, automated visual inspection, biodiversity monitoring, and AI-powered field surveillance.
