Hardware
A scale hive (or bioserver) consists of a computer (desktop, laptop, router, SBC/SOC such as Raspberry Pi), which is used to record, display, and analyze data from sensors such as scales, thermometers, hygrometer, microphone, video camera. Listed below are readily available, commercial, off the shelf products that are currently in use or undergoing development and testing.
