RatMote has been developed for project RatPack, which aims at creating a new method for behavioral research on rats in their natural environment using wireless sensor nodes. Recent development in microcontroller architecture allowed us to design a sensor node which calculates up to 22 times more operations per mAh than the widely used TelosB node. This significant performance and efficiency increase allows us to perform computationally demanding algorithms inside the node, needed for vocalization analysis, localization, and mapping.}, note = {Demo Abstract}, tags = {RatPack}, url = {fileadmin/papers/2010/2010-04-IPSN-bitsch-ratmote.pdf}, web_url = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1791212.1791291}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {ACM}, address = {New York City, NY, USA}, series = {IPSN '10}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 9th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN 2010), Stockholm, Sweden}, organization = {ACM}, event_place = {Stockholm, Sweden}, event_name = {9th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN 2010)}, event_date = {April 12-16, 2010}, language = {en}, ISBN = {978-1-60558-988-6}, DOI = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1791212.1791291}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Bitsch Link, J{\'o} Agila and Bretgeld, Thomas and Goliath, Andr{\'e} and Wehrle, Klaus} } @Inproceedings { 2010-bitsch-link-iq2s-burrowview, title = {BurrowView - Seeing the world through the eyes of rats}, year = {2010}, month = {3}, day = {29}, pages = {56 -- 61}, abstract = {For a long time, life sciences were restricted to look at animal habitats only post-factum.
