  • Acoustic camera based audio visual scene analysis
    Patent number: 9736580
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for scene analysis including the use of acoustic imaging and computer audio vision processes for monitoring applications. In some embodiments, an acoustic image device is utilized with a microphone array, image sensor, acoustic image controller, and a controller. In some cases, the controller analyzes at least a portion of the spatial spectrum within the acoustic image data to detect sound variations by identifying regions of pixels having intensities exceeding a particular threshold. In addition, the controller can detect two or more co-occurring sound events based on the relative distance between pixels with intensities exceeding the threshold.
