IOT ACOUSTIC SENSING The Sounds of Smart Environments

Why AcousCc Sensing ?
AcousCc sensing has an added-‐value facing the “tradiConal” sensing devices, mainly due to two real-‐world advantages: Sensing with Non Line-‐of-‐Sight (NLOS); MulCpurpose sensing.
Sensors are also possibly cheaper that some (e.g. cameras)
Could be complemented with other sensing

Killer (basic) App: Noise Monitoring
by Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering
“As part of the effort to tackle noise pollution, the European Union has laid down a common approach to avoiding, preventing or reducing on a prioritized basis the harmful effects of exposure to environmental noise. This approach is based on using common methods to map noise, on providing information to the public and on implementing action plans at local level. This Directive is also to serve as a basis for developing Community measures concerning noise sources.”, Extract of EU Environmental Noise Directive (2002/49/EC).

Real-‐Time Monitoring of Crowds / Traffic Flows (using acous;cs)
Monitor crowds’/traffic flows (masses, not individuals alone) in buildings/ci;es to create some "image" of flow paDerns of people/cars for …
[Smart-‐Buildings] Energy Efficiency (e.g. advanced air-‐condi;oning control, etc.)
[Smart-‐Ci;es] City opera;ons, e.g. security/emergency planning in public roads and also traffic management in ci;es.
Relevance for IoT:
IoT Infrastructure: Networks of AcousCc Sensors supporCng audio capture, local processing of audio streams and connecCon to some central monitoring system.
IoT Research: RTD on ‘Intelligent AcousCc SoluCons’ to realise real-‐Cme representaCons of movement and flowing of sounds (of traffic / crowds) expressed e.g. as Cme-‐varying moCon fields/maps

Event Detec;on (via acous;cs)
Detect outstanding (much relevant) events via real-‐;me collec;on and processing of on-‐site audio streams for …
[Smart-‐Buildings] suppor;ng some kind of in-‐door early warning system for people in situa;ons of emergency (person falling, screaming, in distress, etc.)
[Smart-‐Ci;es] suppor;ng some kind of out-‐door early warning system for ci;zens in situa;ons of emergency (car crash -‐> persons screaming/crying, etc.)
Relevance for IoT:
IoT infrastructure: Networks of AcousCc Sensors supporCng audio capture, local processing of audio streams, local event detecCon and communicaCon (so send events) to some central ‘complex event processing’ system.
IoT Research: RealisaCon of an ‘Intelligent AcousCc SoluCon’ to perform on-‐the-‐fly energy-‐posiCve detecCon of acousCcs occurrences in large-‐scale acousCc networks

Localisa;on of Outstanding Events (via Acous;c Source Localisa;on)
Pinpoint the (rela;ve) loca;on of outstanding events via triangula;on of acous;c events to …
[Smart-‐Environments] direct means-‐of-‐ aHen;on (surveillance camera, emergency crews, etc.) to loca;on of situa;on of interest
Relevance for IoT:
IoT Infrastructure: Networks of AcousCc Sensors, local processing of distance-‐to-‐event and communicaCon for performing triangulaCon processing for knowing (relaCve) locaCon.
IoT Research: Perform AcousCc Source LocalisaCon considering acousCc coverage of microphone, intersecCon of sensing areas, type of sensors, acousCc capture paderns, etc.

But also some challenges / risks
Challenges on processing acousCc data at IoT level
e.g. processing and storage for advanced FFT algorithms
Hard to idenCfy events over acousCcs
Possibly, even harder in distributed IoT networks
Users’ might be unaffordable with being “listened”
Hindering successful deployment, privacy & security, etc.
What kind of IoT deployment for applicaCon?
Proper deployment for an acous;c-‐enabled applica;on
