Acoustic Multi-Sensor IoT System Development
FY 2025-26 · 2025-05-01
Summary
Researching, developing, and testing a system and supporting hardware to interact with multiple acoustic sensors arranged on a target site to provide automated results and attribution of acoustic emissions using temporal and audio data as well as weather and location data and provide real-time alarms and feedback to site owners or relevant stakeholders. This will help develop a working prototype of a new system which replaces the old process reliant on synchronous data collection and manual processing of data.

Description
Researching, developing, and testing a system and supporting hardware to interact with multiple acoustic sensors arranged on a target site to provide automated results and attribution of acoustic emissions using temporal and audio data as well as weather and location data and provide real-time alarms and feedback to site owners or relevant stakeholders. This will help develop a working prototype of a new system which replaces the old process reliant on synchronous data collection and manual processing of data.
Description (French)
Recherche, développement et essai d’un système et du matériel nécessaire pour interagir avec plusieurs capteurs acoustiques disposés sur un site cible afin de fournir des résultats automatisés et l’attribution des émissions acoustiques à l’aide de données temporelles et audio ainsi que de données météorologiques et de localisation, et de fournir des alarmes et des commentaires en temps réel aux propriétaires du site ou aux intervenants concernés. Cela permettra de mettre au point un prototype fonctionnel d’un nouveau système qui remplacera l’ancien processus reposant sur la collecte synchrone et le traitement manuel des données.
