Project Description
EntoPedia is a wearable system that transforms everyday insect encounters into moments of observation, learning, and shared knowledge without physical capture. Designed as a magnetic pendant, it integrates seamlessly into daily wear. A two-finger press releases the camera module to instantly record insects in real time.
Using imaging and AI, EntoPedia creates digital specimens with visual detail and contextual data such as time and location. Each entry contributes to a shared local dataset. The companion app visualizes seasonal patterns and nearby species, encouraging awareness of ecological cycles.
By shifting collection from possession to documentation, EntoPedia promotes respectful observation and collective understanding.
