Echo Meter Touch 2 Bat Detector for iOS
by Wildlife Acoustics, IncLast refresh Jul/12/2019 11:57 PM
Bat echolocation calls are ultrasonic and out of the range of human hearing. The Echo Meter Touch (EMT) module combines an ultrasonic microphone and digitising circuitry to capture the sounds and send them to the EMT app where they are transformed into audio that you can hear and an interactive spectrogram to visualise the sounds.
There are 18 bat species in the UK, each with its own slightly different type of ultrasonic echolocation call. The Auto ID feature uses sophisticated algorithms to analyse the echolocation calls and identify the most likely species of bats. A pop-up shows you the two most likely bat species matches in real time which you can click on to learn more about the bat. Currently, the EMT can identify bat species from North America, the Neotropics, the UK, Europe and South Africa.
Bat ecologists use the EMT to create libraries of bat call recordings for research and now you can too. Your library will grow along with your knowledge and appreciation of bats. Every recording is geotagged and displayed on Google Maps. It's a fun way to share where you've been and the bats you discovered there.
