Audio Analytic is a British company headquartered in Cambridge, England that has developed a patented sound recognition software framework called ai3, which provides technology with the ability to understand context through sound. This framework includes an embeddable software platform that can react to a range of sounds such as smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms, window breakage, infant crying and dogs barking.

History

[edit | edit source]

The company was based on founder Christopher Mitchell's doctoral research from Anglia Ruskin University, with seed investment from EEDA (East of England Development Agency) and local Cambridge Angels investors.[citation needed]

In 2022 Audio Analytic was bought by Facebook and Instagram owner Meta.[1]

Products

[edit | edit source]

Audio Analytic sells ai3, a software package that is embedded on a device, along with an assortment of sound profiles that the software can recognise, including warning alarms, window breakage, an infant crying, and voice activity.[2]

Audio Analytic developed the Polyphonic Sound Detection Score (PSDS), a metric for evaluating the performance of sound recognition algorithms when applied to polyphonic sound recordings.[3][4][5] They also released an accompanying software framework that implements the PSDS.[6]
