Surveillance bioacoustique
Vespr
Always-on listening that turns wildlife calls into biodiversity data.
Le défi
A survey team hears a few hours of a habitat that is calling day and night.
Vespr
Manual surveys miss nights, dawn choruses and whole seasons, and hours of raw recordings take weeks to review. Vespr listens continuously, recognises species on the device and reports call density and soundscape health, so teams see what is happening in a habitat without wading through audio.

Où l'utiliser
Biodiversity surveys
Continuous species records across a site, season after season.
Zoos & aviaries
Vocal activity in exhibits and breeding aviaries, as a window on behaviour and welfare.
Conservation research
Target species and habitat health followed at remote field sites.
Ce qu’il fait
Species detected
On-device detection of the species calling around the unit.
Call density
How much each species calls, over hours, days and seasons.
Soundscape health
Acoustic indices (ACI and NDSI) that sum up the condition of a habitat.
Human disturbance
Anthrophony detection flags human noise, and speech is filtered out.
Direction of calls
An optional microphone array gives each call a bearing, to help separate individuals.
Tuned to each site
Adaptive calibration matches each unit to its own acoustic environment.
Comment ça marche
Deploy
Place Vespr at the survey point or in the exhibit; it tunes itself to the site's acoustics.
Listen
It records and analyses calls on the device, around the clock.
Report
Species, call density and soundscape indices are reported for review over time.
Pourquoi les équipes le choisissent
Answers, not audio
Results arrive as species and indices, ready to use.
Always listening
Covers the nights and seasons that surveys miss.
Tuned to every site
Each unit calibrates to the acoustics where it is placed.
Wildlife signal only
Human noise and speech are kept out of the results.
