Abstract

Monitoring a plurality of machines located in an operating environment. First and second acoustic signal readings and their respective detecting locations are received from a sensing device. First and second acoustic signal spatialization map containing characteristic data signatures for the machines are generated based on the first and second acoustic signal readings. One or more differences are determined that exceed a predetermined threshold value, between corresponding characteristic data signatures in each of the first and second acoustic signal spatialization maps. At least one of the machines that are associated with the determined differences is identified. A corrective action to perform on the machine is identified, based on the determined one or more differences. Commands are transmitted to a corrective action module in the operating environment to cause the corrective action module to perform the corrective action.
