Founding developers Alex Rogers, Andrew Hill, and Peter Prince

The AudioMoth, Hydromoth and MicroMoth were created by two computer science PhD students at the University of Southampton, Andrew Hill and Peter Prince, together with Alex Rogers, a computer science professor at the University of Oxford. The AudioMoth was the first product of their OpenAcousticDevices initiative.
