Cornell is doing something along those lines for birds using audio recordings. It’s just a smartphone app though - https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/sound-id/
I was using it today, and any day when there are birds around. It correctly identifies birds you can barely hear. It's become as useful as binoculars to me. A great free app.
I have a pi running birdnet-pi on my porch. https://www.birdweather.com/birdnetpi
they also release the model. I've recorded hours of audio outside my house and run it through the model on my desktop with GPU.
Are they using birdnet or something else?
sorry, yes, I'm referring to birdnet.
