+ | The hive is a system of homeostasis. Homeostasis is the property of a system that regulates its internal environment and tends to maintain a stable, constant condition of properties like temperature or pH. It can be either an open or closed system. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The models of the Intelligent Beehive are created from iterative processes where ideas are explored through the production of mock-ups. We do material studies, there are manual sketches and computer drawings: they all form an intrinsic part of the research towards the design of an Intelligent beehive. | ||
+ | |||
+ | We have to think about new materials, inspired by nature. We can experiment with a list of raw materials (list without limitation): | ||
+ | We can make hives out of flexible solar panels, or work with artificial materials issued from synthetic biology. | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | The hive operates in a state of dynamic equilibrium. | ||
+ | No central nervous system is available to the bees: each creature acts independently. | ||
+ | It is essential that they have different thresholds, otherwise all behaviour would be all-or-none responses. | ||
+ | The result is a graded response, tuned into the needs of the larger entity (the body or the hive), | ||
