I want an inexpensive way to connect a hydrophone to a
PC such as to the RCA mic jack of a laptop or a PCMCIA
card. I will then write the software to read the
audio-in port. I want to read frequencies between 1 Hz
and 100 kHz and use my own software to read the input
port. I already have the FFT and other signal
processing completed.
Does this make sense? For example, isn't the typical
mic port build for the frequencies of the human audio
range or can it accept a wider range? If I need a
PCMCIA card or some other interface for the A/D then
which one would you recommend?
Which hydrophone(s) do you recommend?
I am planning to release the software with an
open-source licence. The prototype is currently at
<a href="http://leafy.dev.java.net/";

<a href="http://sf.net/projects/c2h/";
rel="nofollow">http://sf.net/projects/c2h/</a> in the *file* sections.
Thank you very much.
