The main aim of the Hi-Tech Wild-Trek trailer is to provide an extra buzz to any wildlife hunt or investigation. The moving images on the big screen are a big part of that. The technology also allows data to be collected in a way that appeals to the younger generation. Hi-Tech Wild-Trek also aims to support and facilitate activities by providing equipment, advice and planning where these elements are needed. The key to our approach is flexibility. Take a look at some of the ways in which the trailer has been used in HTWT at Work
The core element of Hi-Tech Wild-Trek is the video camera that gives close up views of small creatures. These are displayed on the main screen at roughly 50 times life size. A microscope camera is also available for the smaller items. A computer provides the means of grabbing still images that can be printed out and a file of images forms part of the habitat record. The moving images are recorded on DVD. A further screen shows database output or archive material. In 2009 there will also be a display of physical data (temp., pH, etc.) from the habitat. Catching, handling and identifying of animals is fully supported by the nets, trays, pots, and ID sheets carried on board.
