Binary Acoustic Technology AR150FG

Product Description
$1,095.00
Maximum quantity available reached.

The AR150-FG is a professional quality ultrasonic receiver that is designed for ultrasonic recording and acoustic analysis. It employs a hemispherical ultrasonic element along with ultrasonic to digital conversion technology which produces a high quality, digitally sampled, acoustic stream that is injected directly into a laptop or lab computer for recording and analysis.

Compared with the miniMIC, the AR150-FG employs low noise circuitry along with a 16-bit digital converter to achieve high sensitivity along with a large dynamic range. Typical applications include acoustic bat mobile transects, but it is used also for mice and rodent studies, bat flight rooms, and moth and/or insect research. The acoustic stream that is captured directly into a Windows tablet, a laptop or netbook running Windows XP or higher, or a Mac via Parallels for recording and analysis using the included SPECT'R software, SonoBatLIVE, Bat Recorder app for Android, and others.

To date, this microphone has outperformed every microphone+software combination is has ever been compared with on bat acoustic mobile transects at all AZ, KY, and CA Bat Survey Solutions workshop venues.

AR150-FG is better at:

  • Active recording/viewing live full spectrum activity, and then selectively recording only the bat pass of interest.
  • Mobile transects; the omnidirectional-like coverage of this microphone is ideal for moving transects and captures significantly more pulses in files than directional microphones and lower quality omni-directional mics.
  • Educational demos; people are entranced by the "campfire effect" of watching bat activity go by live.
  • Passive monitoring; the AR150-FG is housed in a robust weatherproof housing more appropriate for inclement weather.
  • Orient this microphone vertically with the element on the top to minimize moisture in the cable port. Billed as omnidirectional, raise this microphone as far as possible from all obstructions (~12'+ above ground) and extend it into the airspce you intend to monitor.
  • The FG microphone element is similar to the Pettersson D240x, and thus very compatible with the SonoBat autoclassifer.
  • Compatible with SonoBatLIVE and Bat Recorder Android app
  • Compatible with Myotisoft Transect
  • Compatible with SonoBat Bat Call Analysis software
