Biological Recording Company - Understanding a Bee's Buzz: Biology to Robotics
via Zoom
Ever wondered how and why bees buzz? Or what determines the different properties of a bee buzz? In this webinar, Charlie reveals the answer. Join us to understand bee buzzes through his work from the lab and field to understand how bees produce their buzzes and how this understanding is being used to inform the design of micro-robots for pollination.
Dr Charlie Woodrow is a Zoologist working at Uppsala University to understand the diversity of insects and how they work. In particular, he is interested in how insects produce and detect sounds and vibrations. This research has taken him to some of the most remote regions of the world in search of new and interesting insects and their behaviors, from hearing in crickets to how bees produce their buzzes. He combines this fieldwork with lab experiments, 3D imaging and computer models to understand the fine details of insect form and function.
