Abstract: AI-enabled Moisture Resistant Electronic Acoustic Signaling Timer Whistle Abstract: The present invention is a device introduces a portable acoustical whistle that embeds a microelectronic timer and an automated control system into a single unit, with the aim of delivering clear, repeatable time interval management compared to existing acoustic signalling devices. The device incorporates a low power microcontroller, timing circuitry, minimal control buttons, and a local display within the whistle body. The microcontroller is being integrated with a lightweight neural network (TinyML), thereby equipping an AI module to analyse the incoming acoustic sound and aid in distinguishing the specific whistle harmonics from ambient interferences. This integrated design eliminates reliance on separate stopwatches, game clocks, or remote timers that introduce reaction delays, inconsistent timing, and increased mental workload.
