So it\u2019s nice to see one that uses it in a creative way, and delivers something new. [arnegiacomo]\u2019s e-paper screen is a great example, as <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/arnegiacomo\/fugleramme\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">it draws a picture in real time of whatever birds are outside<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Behind the quite large screen sits a Raspberry Pi 5, and on that is <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/tphakala\/birdnet-go\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">BirdNet-Go<\/a>, an AI-powered birdsong classifier. A USB microphone catches the birdsong, and Birdnet comes up with the species. The birds on the display are then those species as pictures from 19th century bird spotters guides, assembled into a collage. <a href=\"https:\/\/fugleramme.arnegiacomo.dev\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">You can even see what the current set of birds it hears are<\/a>, live, and they are a representative cross section of the European birds you\u2019d find in Norway where it\u2019s located.<\/p>\n<p>We like this project, both for the bird book vibe it gives, and the creative use of machine classification. Surprisingly <a href=\"https:\/\/hackaday.com\/2025\/11\/25\/a-bird-watching-assistant\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">this isn\u2019t the first project in this field we have seen over the years<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With artificial intelligence being the b\u00eate noir of the moment, there are some projects using it which maybe&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":760357,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[554,733,4308,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-760356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/760356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=760356"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/760356\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/760357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=760356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=760356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=760356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
