Echo Meter Touch Bat Detector Avis

Using the Echo Meter Touch 2 Pro plug-in module, available from Amazon, or through distributors worldwide, this app allows you to listen to, record, and automatically identify bats by their ultrasonic echolocation calls.

There in now only one available: Echo Meter Touch 2 (EMT2) has been discontinued for iOS and was intended for nature enthusiasts and batting hobbyists and Echo Meter Touch 2 Pro costs $349 and is designed for bat professionals and features a higher quality microphone, adjustable gain, and higher sample rate.

***Because bats vary their echolocation calls in response to a wide variety of needs, no automated identification can achieve 100% accuracy in species identification.

Auto-ID will not work well on recordings of roost emergence, multiple or captive bats, bats in high clutter environments, or bat social calls.

Wildlife Acoustics’ patented Real Time Expansion (RTE) allows you to listen to bats in real time with unparalleled fidelity.

Activate triggered recording mode to automatically save bat passes to full spectrum .wav files for analysis on a computer or to view on your iDevice.

The module and this companion app reveal the silent and often times invisible world of bats, providing outdoor enthusiasts, citizen scientists, and researchers an affordable and informative way to interact with these important creatures.

The Echo Meter Touch Ultrasonic Module senses ultrasonic signals, digitizes the signal, and transmits the ultrasonic data to the app on your iOS device.

Auto-ID is intended for use in analyzing recordings of single bats in free flight in low clutter environments.

The Auto ID feature analyzes the echolocation calls and suggests the two most likely bat species matches in real time.

Listen to the recording using RTE, HET, or traditional Time Expansion Playback (playback at fractional speed to make the ultrasound audible).

Heterodyne (HET) listening via manual and automatic tuning is also available, for those accustomed to that way of hearing bats.

Using Wi-Fi, the app bundles the recordings in a .zip folder and allows download by entering a URL in any web browser.
