  • Publication number: 20240284891
    Abstract: A method for measuring insect activity in a geographic area, the method comprising: traversing at least a portion of target area by a movable insect sensor, the insect sensor configured to generate sensor data indicative of one or more insect detection events, each insect detection event being indicative of one or more detected insects in a detection volume of the movable insect sensor; creating, by a data processing system based on the generated sensor data, an insect distribution map of the target area, the insect distribution map representing local insect activity in respective portions of the target area.

  • Publication number: 20210329906
    Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing an insecticide across an area of land; the apparatus comprising a vehicle configured to travel along a travelling path across the area of land, the vehicle defining a direction of travel, the vehicle comprising an insecticide dispensing device configured to dispense an insecticide along said traveling path when the vehicle travels along the travelling path; a dispensing control system configured to control an amount of insecticide to be dispensed when the vehicle travels along the travelling path; an insect sensor configured to detect insects in a detection volume; wherein the detection volume is located in front of the vehicle relative to the direction of travel; wherein the dispensing control system is configured to receive sensor data from the insect sensor, the sensor data being indicative of detected insects in the detection volume, and to control the amount of dispensed insecticide responsive to the received sensor data.

  • Patent number: 9447289
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the establishment of a crack resistant epoxy paint coat and paint compositions suitable for said method. The method is developed for use in ballast tanks e.g. a ballast tank of a vessel. The method involves the steps: (i) applying a paint composition comprising an epoxy-based binder system onto the surface thereby forming a curable paint film on the surface, and (ii) allowing the curable paint film to cure thereby forming the epoxy paint coat. The paint composition has a viscosity of at the most 140 KU, when ready to be applied. The paint composition comprises 35-80% by solids volume of the paint of an epoxy-based binder system having a ratio between the hydrogen equivalents and the epoxy equivalents in the range of 20:100 to 120:100. The paint composition furthermore comprises 0.5-30% by solids volume of the paint of one or more fibers. The fibers have an average length, of at the most 250 ?m.
