System-fig-1

Monitoring bats on wind farms can be challenging. The Song Meter with Analysis and Remote Transfer (SMART) System is an innovative solution for reducing bat fatalities and associated curtailment costs at wind farms.

Detect Bats in Real Time
Leverage Kaleidoscope Pro analysis software with Bat Auto-ID to quickly identify species and take immediate action to minimize bat collisions.
Reduce Turbine Downtime
Integrate with SCADA and other third-party solutions to pause turbine operation as needed, minimizing curtailment costs and increasing annual energy production compared to blanket curtailment.
Access Data Remotely
Download recordings and activity summaries, and manage your SMART System remotely via a secure web browser interface.

PREVENT TIME-CONSUMING, COSTLY REPAIRS

Weatherproof anodized aluminum housing with EMI shielding protects against the elements and static discharge
A heating system eliminates condensation and icing of the ultrasonic sensors

GET DEPENDABLE DATA

Two discrete ultrasonic sensors provide redundancy for added reliability
A built-in ultrasonic speaker tests and automatically selects the sensor with the best result

BETTER DISCERN BATS
Innovative technology digitizes signals before sending them to the controller, reducing EMI that can obscure echolocations.

**SMART System Price (USD)***

Microphone $1,999
Controller $2,999
