Small animal identification

For over 20 years, we have been working with research institutes worldwide. Our mini TAGs are used all over the world and support projects on biodiversity assessment, behavioral research, and livestock monitoring.

Your Advantages

This is iID®bee

We continuously develop intelligent solutions that provide deeper insights into animal behavior. iID®bee is an umbrella term for the solutions iID®science and iID®Sens4Bee, which, depending on the focus, are suitable for both research institutions and beekeepers.



Sensor technology for beekeeping

Monitor your honey bees and their brood all year round with our iID®Sens4Bee sensor system, so you are informed immediately in the event of anomalies and issues.



Bee identification in research

With iID® science, you always have a complete overview of your winged test subjects. Our miniaturized transponders label each animal with a globally unique number and record every entry into and exit from the hive.



Digital data capture

Our NFC "Hive TAGs" can be attached to the outside of wooden hives in just a few seconds and written to and read with a standard phone. Optionally, they measure temperature, air pressure, and humidity in real time.

We have the solution

Small animal ID with RFID

With the world’s smallest RFID transponders, you always have a complete overview of your animals! Whether professional or hobby beekeeping, or research, we help you monitor the health and behavior of your colonies with maximum precision.

For your research

Through years of collaboration with institutes and researchers worldwide, we have perfected our offering for bee identification and tracking. Always keep an overview of the flight times and duration of all your animals. Each transponder acts as a unique, miniaturized "ID card", and the hive entrance itself serves as the antenna.

Our Bluetooth sensors, specially designed for use on and in hives, are your feelers in the comb! Record temperature, humidity, vibration, and shock events, and store historical data in the cloud.

For your beekeeping operation

The sens4bee sensor bundle is also available for private and commercial honey production. The focus here is on maintaining ideal parameters researched over many years. Equipped with the TELID® 700.hive and TELID® 700.honeycomb, your hive continuously provides you with all the values you need.

Depending on the season, the associated software checks for unusual or dangerous temperature values, excessive moisture accumulation, sudden shock events that may indicate vandalism, theft, or predators, or predicts swarming behavior*. With the LTE gateway installed on site, you have all data available at any time while on the go, in the office, or from home, and can act quickly if issues arise.

Under normal use, the replaceable batteries last up to one year and can be replaced in just a few minutes without any special tools.

*in the final development stage, expected to be available in Q4 2026

Our sensor solution is based on the recently completed "Sens4Bee" project in collaboration with Fraunhofer IZM and the HELMHOLTZ Centre for Environmental Research UFZ.
