New York City is a loud place. In fact, 9 of 10 adults in NYC are exposed to harmful levels of noise, which can lead to sleep loss, hearing loss and even heart disease. Can anything be done about it? The SONYC research project combines internet of things sensing technology, machine learning, data science and citizen science to tackle noise pollution head on at city scale. Come hear about a sensor that can recognize sounds like a human and how we plan to use it to improve quality of life in NYC.
