Abstract
Using scent fingerprints and sound fingerprints for location and proximity determinations can include detecting a movement of a user device relative to an environment, and determining if a fingerprint associated with the user device and the environment is available. The fingerprint can include a sound fingerprint, a scent fingerprint, and usage data defining resource usage of the user device at the environment, The fingerprint associated with the user device and the environment can be obtained with an instance of sensor data including a scent detected at the user device and a sound detected at the user device. Based on the instance of sensor data and the fingerprint associated with the user device and the environment, a location and proximity of the user device can be determined.
