Haikubox is the AI-enabled, Wi-Fi-connected device that automatically and continuously identifies birds using their sounds. Like a haiku poem which evokes nature and seasonal change, each Haikubox carefully observes and records nature’s beauty and seasonality. With Haikubox, birdwatchers can effortlessly “bird by ear,” an important birdwatching skill since many birds are camouflaged or don’t visit feeders. Operating 24/7, even when a birdwatcher isn’t actively seeking birds, a Haikubox is always listening. This full-time operation allows users to know when birds are visiting, including owls at midnight or migrating birds making a stopover visit, and they can set up customizable, real-time alerts so they can get outside to see these special birds. Each Haikubox uses proprietary AI and algorithms to identify bird songs and calls, and this “Shazam for birdsong” shares what it learns via an intuitive and easy to use smartphone app or website. Haikubox owners can listen to recordings of their birds, check data visualizations on when each species visits, and save, download and share with family and friends, making it a great birdwatching tool or gift for any bird lover. Haikubox owners also join the larger Haikubox network of listening stations, becoming part of a community science project. As one node in a growing passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) network, Haikubox owners contribute valuable bird behavior data that can fuel future scientific research. In a time when technology often pulls us away from the natural world, Haikubox does the opposite – it fosters a deeper connection to it. By combining AI technology with a love for the environment, Haikubox helps people engage with nature in a modern and educational way. Haikubox was named a TIME Best Invention (outdoors category) in 2024 and has received positive reviews by WIRED (9/10), Audubon Magazine, and others. Haikubox was developed and is manufactured by Loggerhead Instruments, a leader in producing PAM recording devices used around the world for scientific discovery. With Haikubox, the company hopes to further its mission to improve environmental literacy and promote conservation and stewardship by helping people learn and care about the natural world. Ver mais
