> the technology can’t exactly identify a car or person. “You can say if it's a car, or if it's a truck, or it's a bike. But you cannot say, ‘Oh, this is a Nissan Sentra, 2019,’” says Stanford University geophysicist Ariel Lellouch, who uses DAS but wasn’t involved in this study but did peer-review it. “Anonymity of DAS is one of the biggest benefits, actually.”
Good.
- h4waii 5y agoI'm sure, like all people have different gait, that an acoustic profile can be matched against.
- overspeed 5y agoWith sufficient data, acoustic patterns could be learnt to identify the type of vehicle down to its model. You might be able tell it is a Sentra but not _whose_ Sentra.
- meesterdude 5y agoTrue, and with even more sufficient data, such as context and other acoustic profiling like those from the tires and one very well might be able to detect a specific Sentra.
- ska 5y ago> acoustic patterns could be learnt Maybe, but this is assuming a lot about the fundamental SNR of the measurement system, etc. It might go the other way, e.g. you can't even reliably tell it was the same vehicle twice, just a roughly similar one.
