In order to get the best recognition results, users need to pay attention to the following points when taking photos of insects:
- lighting condition: Choose a scene with plenty of natural light, avoiding strong backlighting or shadows that obscure insect features
- Sharp focusMake sure the subject of the insect is in the center of the frame, and keep the phone at a distance of 20-50 cm from the insect.
- Angle Selection: Priority is given to back or side shots that show both the wing and the foot.
- background processing: Try to choose a monochrome background to avoid complex patterns interfering with AI's judgment
For special cases:
small insect(like ants): you can turn on the macro mode of your cell phone
woodlouse (suborder Oncorhynchus mykiss): It is recommended to take several shots in a row and then choose the sharpest one to upload.
dilapidated specimen: Even with only a partial torso, AI may still give probable answers through feature matching
If you encounter a recognition failure, try adjusting the shooting angle to take a new shot, or check if the app is the latest version. We recommend using a soft fill light for nighttime shooting to avoid color distortion caused by strong direct light.
