Abstract
An animal audio signature may be collected by a solar powered sound collection device. The solar powered collection device may use a supercapacitor to store power. The animal audio signature may be compared to a database of known animal audio signatures. The database may contain one or more identities for each of the known animal audio signatures. A known animal audio signature that matches the collected animal audio signature may be identified. An identity associated with the known animal audio signature may be transmitted to a data repository over a 5G wireless network.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- collecting, by a solar powered sound collection device, an animal audio signature,
- wherein the solar powered collection device uses a supercapacitor to store power;
- comparing the animal audio signature to a database of known animal audio signatures, wherein the database contains one or more identities for each of the known animal audio signatures;
- identifying, based on the comparing, a known animal audio signature that matches the collected animal audio signature;
- and
- transmitting an identity associated with the known animal audio signature to a data repository over a 5G wireless network.
A method comprising:
- collecting, by a sound collection device, an animal audio signature;
- comparing the animal audio signature to a database of known animal audio signatures, wherein the database contains one or more identities for each of the known animal audio signatures;
- identifying, based on the comparing, a known animal audio signature that matches the collected animal audio signature;
- and
- transmitting an identity associated with the known animal audio signature to a data repository.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to:
- collect, by a solar powered sound collection device connected to the computer, an animal audio signature,
- wherein the solar powered collection device uses a supercapacitor to store power;
- compare the animal audio signature to a database of known animal audio signatures,
- wherein the database contains one or more identities for each of the known animal audio signatures;
- identify, based on the comparing, a known animal audio signature that matches the collected animal audio signature;
- and
- transmit an identity associated with the known animal audio signature to a data repository over a 5G wireless network.
