Seems like an interesting way to identify machines that are breaking down.
If these devices can be built cheaply, just place them all over a factory, chirping their ID whenever they have enough power to do so. You map the IDs to locations and get a real-time map of where there's EM noise spitting out. When the map starts changing from it's usual patterns, then you identify the source of that change.

They used a directional microphone array pointed at the inspected machine and compared audio waves and overlayed “hot spots” on a display to see how the machine was working and where it was malfunctioning.
