Patent attributes
Systems, apparatuses and methods for technology to perform gait detection and identification. The system includes a pre-processing pipeline to process audio input data from one or more microphones to combine and strengthen an audio gait signal. The pre-processing pipeline is coupled to a gait detector to detect the sound of one or more footsteps from the audio gait signal. The system also includes a person evaluator (e.g., identifier/verifier) to identify the person associated with the one or more footsteps using a set of trained footstep identification (ID) classifiers. Each trained footstep ID classifier is mapped to the gait of a specific person in the home based on a particular combination of person, footwear, and floor surface within the home.
