icListen HF
Stream or Record HD Subsea Audio
Ocean Sonics designs and manufactures icListen, the world’s first smart digital hydrophone. Compact and easy to use, its small size makes it the perfect tool for sound data collection. Listen in real-time and improve decision making, or use as an acoustic recorder for long term deployments. The best data is collected by the best tools. icListens internal processing saves time. Listen Now. The Ocean Sonics Way.
Description
The icListen Smart Hydrophone is the industry's most sensitive broadband digital hydrophone. It's a compact, all-in-one instrument capable of processing data while collecting in real-time.
Use icListen as a digital hydrophone, acoustic data logger, or both at once. Collect hard to detect data accurately and cost effectively while reducing data handling and storage.
- Detect real-time events using Epoch Mode. Determine when spectral or WAV data is stored or transmitted in real-time
- Use a web browser to access the webserver to setup, test, and operate icListen
- Synchronize multiple hydrophones for a high quality multi-channel array avoiding the problem of cross-talk
- Simplify data processing and project planning
- Wide dynamic range eliminates gain settings
- Easy to connect through a network, radio or cabled to a PC
- Compact and self-contained, can be carried in one hand
Use icListen smart hydrophones with Ocean Sonics Launch Box or Drifting Buoy to stream data via wifi up to 100m
Deploy the icListen autonomously to record sound data on the instruments 256gb internal memory, or use a subsea battery pack and Ocean Sonics smart board to extend hydrophone battery life for long term deployments
Are you doing pile driving/ seismic surverying or construction and require acoustic monitoring tools? Use icListen HF-X2! Record high intensity sounds like pile driving and explosions, ensuring your project is compliant with regualtions and the effects on the marine environment are mitigated.
