Not the most conventional application for self-hosting, but thought it might make for a fun weekend project for someone.
BirdNET-Pi is built off the back of Cornell University’s BirdNET Sound ID neural network model (https://birdnet.cornell.edu/). It can be used to classify what birds are in your vicinity by listening to their calls.
In case y’all haven’t seen it: you can run similar software in a docker container and connect it to a standard security camera stream to get audio.
This is a very cool idea! What microphone would be well suited for this purpose?
BirdNet-Pi is awesome. Highly recommended for anyone who likes birds. The BirdNet app for phones is also nice.
Btw, BirdNet-Pi also works fine on the non-plus Raspberry Pi 3.The Cornell app is magical. If i self host this is it mobile compatible? I’d love to be able to host and share this with the family if so.
Yes the website looks just fine from mobile, I have had one running for weeks and my phone is the primary way I access it.
Actually sounds really cool, why not
Loving this sweet sweet, this is what this magazine is here for, new toy.
Wife and I are into birding locally around the house. “Babe, it can listen all day and ID what it hears” might just be the tipping point to get her onboard with a couple cameras for the house.
