Abstract

Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with acoustic detection of changes in mass of cargo carried by a vehicle are described herein. In one example method for acoustic cargo surveillance, a first acoustic output of a vehicle carrying cargo at a first time of surveillance of the vehicle is recorded. Then, a second acoustic output of the vehicle at a subsequent time in the surveillance of the vehicle carrying the cargo is recorded. A change in a mass of the cargo carried by the vehicle is acoustically detected based at least on an acoustic change between the first acoustic output and the second acoustic output. An electronic alert is generated that the mass of the cargo has changed based on the acoustic change.
