 The most evident use is in supporting the spotting of collectible items. Often the soundprint of the emitters is not achieved through their own [[Foley]] but through some [[Sound Effects | Sound Effect]]. As an aside, [[Beacon Locator|Beacon Locators]] associated to collectible items are usually immediately followed by a sound of [[Achievement]], should the item be collected.
-One other category of examples of [[Beacon Locator]] is to provide [[Awareness]] for the existence of enemies in the vicinity, sometimes with the advantage of also enabling to identify their direction, through [candidate:][[Directionality]]. In such cases it is common that the detection is provided by aspects of the NPC's [[Character Soundprint]], although it may consist of other sound manifestations of NPC interaction such as [[Chitchat]], etc.
