ALARM EVENT DETERMINATIONS VIA MICROPHONE ARRAYS

摘要

Examples disclosed herein provide the ability to communicate alarm events on a premises to client devices remotely located with respect to the premises. In one example, a monitoring device extracts a sound originating from the premises, wherein the sound is detected by microphones of a microphone array. The monitoring device performs pattern matching to identify an alarm event associated with the extracted sound, and determines a location of the alarm event within the premises based on information obtained individually by the microphones of the microphone array. The monitoring device communicates the alarm event and the location of the alarm event to a client device remotely located with respect to the premises.
