Here is a robot that uses acoustic localization to detect sneaking people. It can tell where people are based on subtle incidental sounds they create as they move. As you can see in the below video, the robot can detect where a person is as he moves around it.

This model was trained with 14 hours of high quality 4-channel audio paired with a 360-degree RGB camera.
