🐝 Computer Vision for Queen Bee Detection

An interactive 3D detector overlay on a simulated hive frame: watch a computer-vision model draw bounding boxes around the queen bee and tune confidence threshold, image noise, and model tier to see detections change live.

AI & Machine Learning3DAdvanced60 FPS

A live 3D hive-frame scene where a simulated object detector scans for the queen among workers and drones, drawing bounding boxes only where its confidence score clears the threshold you set.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

Detection scores are driven by distinguishing features (the queen's longer, tapered abdomen and larger size), then perturbed by simulated image noise and model tier — exactly the trade-offs that decide accuracy in a real deployed detector.

🎮 How to Use

Pick a model tier, drag the confidence threshold and noise sliders, and change bee density. Watch the bounding boxes, queen confidence, false-positive count, and simulated latency update live.

💡 Did You Know?

Because only one bee per colony is a queen, queen detection is an extreme class-imbalance problem — labelling teams deliberately curate "hard negative" drone crops so the model learns real distinguishing features, not just rarity.
