BioClip (referenced in their writeup) is good to know about.

I run a small scale wildlife monitoring program with usually 3 cameras (depending on how many are being repaired for battery terminal corrosion). Each month I skim through and categorize ~200 videos that we've captured. Doesn't take too long, but it would be nice to automate at some point.

Are there any "citizen science" initiatives where I can buy a device like this and upload my insect counts to some database that's useful for researchers?

I have been interested in setting up some things like home weather monitoring, ADS-B, streaming webcams for wildlife, etc. anyway so this would be a fun item to add to that.

This could be a great teaching tool, BUT at about $375 per Mothbox, it's going to be a hard sell for most schools.
