Abstract
An apparatus and method for detecting, locating, tracking, or classifying an acoustic energy source located on a far side of a structure is disclosed. In accordance with the present invention, a receiving device samples a plurality of points on a near side of the structure to detect vibrations that result from sound waves propagated by the acoustic energy source. The location of the acoustic energy source is determined based on the relative time differences of the vibrations and the known positions of the vibrations on the structure. The acoustic energy source may be classified based on identifying characteristics of the vibrations. In addition, a device may be provided to transmit a sound wave through the structure. The receiving devices samples a plurality of points on the near side of the structure to detect vibrations resulting from reflections of the sound wave from the object.
