Sound Monitor
An off-the-shelf sound monitor turned into a live shot counter, reporting from the field.
- Client
- Leamarston Shooting Club
- Type
- Connected hardware
The problem
The club needed to know how many shots were being fired and when. The hardware to detect them existed off the shelf; what did not exist was any way to get that data off the device and into a report.
The outcome
A Raspberry Pi running a Python service reads the monitor, counts shots and uploads them to the cloud, where they can be reported on. Commodity hardware doing a job that would otherwise have needed a bespoke product.
