Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for detecting events from coupled sensors. The method includes receiving a plurality of signals from coupled sensors and processing the plurality of signals to obtain characterization data for each of the signals. The characterization data is used with a state machine to determine at least one event that caused the coupled sensors to output the plurality of signals. Control signals are created that can be used to reproduce or represent the at least one event.
