Abstract
Techniques and systems are described for creating and operating a vibration triangulation network. The network can include vibration sensor devices placed in a building, such as a store or a house, which are able to pinpoint the location of a target, e.g., person, animal, etc., through triangulation. A described technique includes receiving vibration notifications from vibration sensor devices, determining a location of a target within the building based on at least a portion of the vibration notifications and a vibration sensor map associated with the building, and triggering an alarm event based on a detection of the target.
