Monarch

Biopowered GPS insect tracking

This project is organized by Professor Carlsmith to explore biopower options for satellite and cell phone microdevices for long distance biotracking of insects. Possible applications are:

  • Monarch butterfly - these butterflies migrate from Wisconsin to MX! How do they do that?
