Bat tracking using audio and video

In a collaboration with Thejasvi Beleyur at the The Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence, we are developing methods for detecting and tracking bat movements. Thejasvi Beleyur have collected a unique dataset of images from thermal cameras and audio from a number of microphones in a cave, where bats fly and echolocalize. In this project we would like to develop methods for 

• Detecting bat calls - these are chirps that go from high frequency to low frequency
• Extracting time-difference-of-arrival measurements relative to pairs of microphones
• Detecting bat positions in the thermal images
• Estimating 3D motion using both audio and video
• Estimating direction and spread of chirp
