Can students track the secret lives of butterflies and lizards? Georgia Tech is using tiny sensors weighing just 0.03 grams to turn its campus into a living laboratory

Georgia Tech is turning its campus into a living laboratory where students will track lizards, birds and butterflies using miniature wireless sensors. One device weighs just 0.03 grams, making it small enough to attach to a lizard. The initiative, led by biology professors Benjamin Freeman and James Stroud, aims to involve more than 800 students annually across disciplines. Researchers also hope to create a dynamic campus biodiversity map within…
