## Using the Sound Detector Component <a href="#user-content-sound-detector-system" id="user-content-sound-detector-system"></a>

The Sound Detector Component gives AI the ability to hear player targets and detect noises made by [Attract Modifiers](https://black-horizon-studios.gitbook.io/emerald-ai-wiki/emerald-components-optional/sound-detector-component/using-an-attract-modifier). AI need to have a Sound Detector Component applied to it in order to use the sound detector features. When certain [Threat Levels](https://black-horizon-studios.gitbook.io/emerald-ai-wiki/emerald-components-optional/sound-detector-component/understanding-the-sound-detector-settings#current-threat-amount) are met, it will trigger modular [Reaction Objects](https://black-horizon-studios.gitbook.io/emerald-ai-wiki/emerald-profiles-and-objects/reaction-object), which allow the AI investigate areas the sound came from, enter combat mode, and more.
