Acoustic sensor for audio analytics

In many Countries, audio recording is not permitted, but users or system administrators still need to monitor areas while maintaining privacy for audio monitoring. Some network-based cameras are embedded with acoustic sensors instead of a microphone, allowing audio analytics in the camera to scan and measure sound waves but not stream or store audio. So sounds like glass breaking, or screaming, can still be detected. In this white paper, you can read the differences between a microphone and an acoustic sensor, and what it means to use edge-based audio analytics.
