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