    The firm proposes an eight-month project, beginning August 2026, extending its Bird Song IoT edge-AI platform with two capabilities: an acoustic AI model for bat detection and species classification, and a hub-and-spoke sensor network relaying environmental data from remote field sites to the cloud over LoRa and other low-power radio protocols. Funding would support the bat model, the sensor network, and early work on edge-deployed AI agents for autonomous field reporting. The platform would eventually extend beyond bat acoustics into other applications, such as air quality, water level, and streamflow monitoring, for mining, wind energy, and utilities clients.
    description_fr
    L’entreprise propose un projet de 8 mois, débutant en août 2026, visant à étendre sa plateforme d’IA en périphérie «Bird Song IdO» avec 2 fonctionnalités : un modèle d’IA acoustique pour la détection des chauves-souris et la classification des espèces, et un réseau de capteurs de type «étoile» relayant les données environnementales depuis des sites de terrain éloignés vers le nuage via LoRa et d’autres protocoles radio à faible consommation. Le financement permettrait de prendre en charge le modèle de chauves-souris, le réseau de capteurs et les premiers travaux sur des agents d’IA déployés en périphérie pour la transmission autonome de données de terrain. À terme, la plateforme s’étendrait au-delà de l’acoustique des chauves-souris à d’autres applications, telles que la surveillance de la qualité de l’air, du niveau de l’eau et du débit des cours d’eau, pour des clients issus des secteurs minier, de l’énergie éolienne et des services publics.
