Welcome to Wildlife Acoustics®

Welcome to Wildlife Acoustics®, leading innovators and developers of high technology products for scientists, researchers, and government agencies. We're proud to present a true technological breakthrough for the automated monitoring of birds, frogs, bats, and other wildlife populations.

Announcing the new Song MeterTM SM2

Second generation weatherproof autonomous audio recorder and data logger platform

Our first generation product, the SM1, is now the de-facto standard for monitoring bird and frog populations around the world with thousands of units deployed in dozens of countries. Now we are proud to announce second generation product, the SM2, doubling deployment time with even lower power consumption and greater storage capacity. SM2 is packed with new features and capabilities including an integrated data-logger with built-in temperature sensor, ultrasonic capabilities for recording echo-location calls of bats and dolphins, and expandable to offer many additional application-specific solutions to meet your current and future needs. Find out more and order yours today!

New SM2 Terrestrial Acoustic Monitoring Package

The SM2 Terrestrial Acoustic Package (SM2-TAP) is optimized for monitoring birds, frogs, and other terrestrial wildlife vocalizing in the audio (20-20,000Hz) frequency range. The package includes the new SM2 expandable platform equipped with two removable weatherproof and highly sensitive omni-directional SMX-II microphones. With just 4 D-size batteries, SM2 can record up to 250 hours on a programmable schedule spread out through several months at a time. Longer deployments are also possible with an optional external power source. The recorder includes a built-in temperature sensor and data-logger, and can accept a second analog sensor input to monitor other environmental conditions such as water depth, rainfall, etc. Find out more and order yours today!

New SM2 Ultrasonic Monitoring Package

The SM2 Terrestrial Ultrasonic Package (SM2-TUP) includes our SM2BAT Ultrasonic Interface daughter card capable of recording the echo-location calls of bats, dolphins, etc. The package will include the new SM2 expandable platform equipped with a sensitive weather-resistant broadband ultrasonic microphone. Unlike other bat detectors and recorders, the SM2-TUP can record 16-bit resolution audio samples at 192kHz on one or two channels continuously preserving amplitude and harmonic details of the signal. Using a powerful digital signal processor, SM2-TUP adapts to changing background noise conditions to automatically detect, compress and record bat activity resulting in typical compression ratios of 30:1 during periods of bat activity and 100:1 to 200:1 without. This means that SM2-TUP has the effective flash storage capacity to monitor continuously for thousands of hours at a time. In addition, SM2-TUP consumes less power than any other full spectrum bat detector on the market today for longer field deployments from the same battery weight. Finally, SM2-TUP is significantly less expensive than other bat detectectors and the second channel can be used to record conventional audio to simultaneously monitor bird and frog activity and log temperature making SM2-TUP the most cost effective solution available.
