Wildlife Acoustics Introduces Ultrasonic-Based Song Meter SM2M System For Recording Marine Sounds

Wildlife Acoustics, a provider of bio-acoustic monitoring technology, has announced a novel ultrasonic version of the Song Meter SM2M marine recording system. The autonomous Song Meter SM2M is designed to monitor and record the submersible’s biological and anthropogenic acoustics of ultrasonic frequencies ranging from 2 Hz to 192 KHz, which is used by the researchers of marine industry.

Ian Agranat, Chief Executive Officer and President of Wildlife Acoustics, stated that the company provides remarkable changes towards wildlife monitoring technology in the market. Agranat said that the company is delighted to launch the ultrasonic-based Song Meter SM2M recording system, even though the company has more experience in the ultrasonic bat world.

Song Meter SM2M ultrasonic-based recorder in marine environment

Kathleen M. Dudzinski, Dolphin Communication Project & Senior Marine Scientist’s Director at Geo-Marine, stated that the new Song Meter SM2M recording system is currently employed in two distinct places to record the ambient noise levels and sounds produced by dolphins. Dudzinski also said that the straightforward installation of the SM2M recorder ensures clear recording of sounds and ambient noise levels. Dudzinski added that Geo-Marine is anticipated to operate with the new ultrasonic-based SM2M recording system.

Marine Acoustics’ Lee Shores said that the new Song Meter SM2M ultrasonic-based system records the voices of mammals in marine and ambient noise levels. Lee Shores commented that the new recorder ensures ease in software configuration, non-stop working for a week without requiring battery change, simple fixation in the marine environment, and storing data on a SD card in monthly basis. Shores added that the recorder can be easily recovered for transferring the data from SD cards to the laptop for ending up the analysis.

Using the duty cycle or recording schedule, the customers can use this recorder even for months, with less power usage during the inactive mode.
