100 Million Noise Measurements

The WoopWoop system has now processed and stored in excess of 100 million individual noise level measurements since 2019. Thank you to all our valued clients who have entrusted their noise survey work to the Joey/WoopWoop platform.

For something a little different, here is an astrophotograph of a Joey in an environmental case with solar panel sitting high above the ground and dense grass on an old fence post. Lights from a passing plane and a few stars are visible.

Sound Camera

We are happy to announce we have developed an App to run inside AXIS CCTV cameras to display noise levels in real-time. Initial deployment of this system is at a motor racing track to identify noisy vehicles and to address Council regulatory requirements. The camera can be configured to send videos, photos and audio following an exceedance of noise limits, (including the period before and after the exceedance event.)

All Joey units have the latest software release and are able to power the Sound Camera.

Joey Sound Camera

Optionally, the Joey Sound Camera App can be combined with the AXIS number plate recognition or the AXIS directional microphones to enable noise source tracking and identification

Mangrove logger

This noise logger is situated in a coastal area within mangroves and only just above high-tide. Deployed January 2023 and having 100% uptime to the cloud. Special feature of this build is that all cables are retained within the steel tubes and the microphone is located on top of the supporting post. This ensures no solar deterioration of all important cables. The post is in two parts. The upper part (comprising all the electronics, case etc) is dropped into the lower part rammed deep into the marine sediments. Thus this ‘permanent’ solution is able to be relocated relatively easily.

System testing

Here is a bunch of permanent loggers undergoing final full system testing on a sunny winter day here in Brisbane prior to deployment around a large industrial site. Congrats to the site and looking forward to demonstrating compliance with Licensing conditions.
