A novel input modality for smartphone using tapping sound recognition

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

This paper proposes a new tapping sound recognition technology that is a novel input modality utilizing only microphones in most mobile devices. Our technology extracts the positions of tapping sounds generated at the outside of a smartphone by means of frequency domain features and support vector machine (SVM). The error ratio of our algorithm implemented in a smartphone is measured as 8.6% for 7 tapping positions. In addition, we demonstrate a smartphone application to scroll web pages only by our technology.
