 A need exists for researchers to analyze the effectiveness of bat boxes using a device that can collect data on total visits and is easily mountable, all while maintaining the safe and accessible roosting site a bat box provides. Additionally, both the device and the box need to be low maintenance and cost-effective for research.​ We came up with a 90$ reliable sensor system powered by solar cells that can track visits while effectively minimizing any maintenance visits. Our solution is simple, effective and focused on the conservation of bat population in Canada.
