iss061e100877 (12/30/2019) --- A view of the SoundSee Mission sensors in the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM), aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The Investigation of Deep Audio Analytics on the International Space Station (SoundSee Mission) tests monitoring of the acoustic environment using an audio sensor on Astrobee, a mobile robotic platform aboard the space station. Monitoring sound can provide early indication of equipment failure. Autonomous audio monitoring may improve crew health and safety by keeping equipment in good working order while also reducing crew workload aboard the space station and other spacecraft.
