Now's your chance! en-us 2017-10-03 03:22:13 UTC 2023-04-16 18:31:25 UTC hello@padlet.com The Bat and its Incredible Hearing angela_perrone058 https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193262350 Bats have the best hearing of any mammal, want to know why? Evolution! Because bats are nocturnal, they developed sensitive hearing to be able to hear things at night. They even used what is called echolocation to bounce sounds off of objects in the night so they can know where they are going. This sound comes back to their sensitive ears and they fly straight through the night.]]> 2017-10-03 03:45:08 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193262350 3 Ways Bat Hearing can Help Humans angela_perrone058 https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193264481 1. For people with hearing aids or need them, bat hearing could help them to hear without the use of a hearing aide and also enhance the technology.
2. Bats also use echolocation to be able to see at night, humans drive and
3. Bat hearing is also a helpful thing when driving. Sometimes police sirens or ambulances are hard to hear if you've got your windows rolled up and your music on. If we had bat hearing, we would be able to hear the sirens and be respectful and pull over.

This new technology allows us to harness the technology evolved by bats and  give humans better hearing. This invention is closely similar to hearing aids and will use similar technology, but will be even better because it will be the shape of a bats ear, almost like a funnel straight into the ear.]]> 2017-10-03 04:16:08 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193265608 Prototypes angela_perrone058 https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193266222 This is the original prototype, which will be the hearing aid and the bat ear was also used in the making of this prototype. The shape is similar to the bat ear and inside the ear are all the mechanics of a hearing aid. ]]> 2017-10-03 04:22:04 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193266222 angela_perrone058 https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193363596 2017-10-03 11:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193363596 angela_perrone058 https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193363864 2017-10-03 11:55:25 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_perrone058/zcegpehuim5/wish/193363864
