IntRoLab - Intelligent / Interactive / Integrated / Interdisciplinary Robot Lab of Université de Sherbrooke develops mobile robots performing in various environments. To this end, the laboratory has designed the system ManyEars, an artificial hearing system for a mobile robot to locate, track and separate sound sources in real time. The system requires a multi-channel synchronous audio capture card. Commercial audio acquisition cards are available, but they are expensive, bulky, inefficient and too generic for the needs of ManyEars. Although functional, these cards do not meet the specific needs of mobile robotics and IntRoLab.
