If they're using such unreliable sensors that they're getting false positives all the time the system isn't going to be functional in the first place.

All sensors throw a shitload of false positives (or negatives) when used in the real world, that's why the filtering and unification between sensors is so important, but also really hard to solve, while still getting a consistent and reliable solution.
