Cover Story: This study presents a novel image-based insect trap that overcomes the limitations of traditional camera insect-traps. Unlike existing traps, this device does not rely on manual image annotation for pest counting and incorporates self-disposal of captured insects, making it suitable for long-term deployment. The trap integrates an imaging sensor with Raspberry Pi microcontroller units and embedded deep learning algorithms. It utilizes a pheromone-based funnel trap to count agricultural pests. Additionally, the device receives instructions from a server for configuration, and a servomotor automatically rotates the trap's bottom to dispose of dehydrated captured insects. This design eliminates the challenge of overlap and occlusion caused by decaying insects during extended operation. View this paper
