Bat Detection Research

Bat Detection Research
We built a portable image collection system to collect bat imagery. The scientist setup the system in several locations to collect imagery of bats for detection, tracking and census data. The system  collects synchronous data from up to four cameras. Both visible light cameras and thermal cameras are used in the research. This system makes use of very long fiber optic cables so that the cameras can be positioned remotely from the recorder. Currently, the same system design is being deployed for bat, bird, and dragonfly research.
