Abstract

A sound source localization apparatus configured to identify a location for an active sound object within a defined physical space is described. The sound source localization apparatus may include an acoustic component, a thermal component, and an analysis component. The acoustic component determines an approximate location for at least one sound object within the defined physical space. The thermal component determines an approximate location for at least one thermal object within the defined physical space. The analysis component identifies the active sound object when the approximate locations for at least one acoustic object and at least one thermal object match. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
