Build Your Own Bat Detector with Analog Parts!

In this episode, Mark shows you how to build a bat detector! His design works as a heterodyne receiver that can shift from frequencies in the ultrasonic range to the range which humans can hear. Using an ultrasonic microphone, you can tune the device to the frequency your bats are using for their echolocation. Because different species of bats use different frequencies, you can also potentially identity the species you are listening to as you locate them.

You can build your own detector, using good old-fashioned electronics without the use of microcontrollers or sound processing! Discuss this episode and ask Mark questions on the element14 Community: https://bit.ly/3XmSa5x
