AudioMoth by Open Acoustic Devices

Description

AudioMoth is an open source full-spectrum acoustic logger built around the Silicon Labs Gecko processor by the Open Acoustic Devices Team. It can detect sound from ranging from audible to ultrasonic frequencies and can record uncompressed audio to micro SD card from 8,000 to 384,000 samples per second. A popular research tool for environmental and biodiversity researchers worldwide thanks to the Arribada Initiative, you can now find unattended AudioMoths in some very unexpected places such as rain forests, jungles, and bat caves worldwide.
