Abstract:
A user input detector for a mobile device is described having an ultrasound demodulator having an input for receiving an ultrasound signal reflected from a user and an output for outputting a demodulated ultrasound signal; a gesture processor comprising: a time-frequency processing module configured to generate a time-varying ultrasound-image spectrum from the demodulated ultrasound signal; an image-feature extraction module configured to extract micro-doppler features from the time-varying ultrasound image spectrum; a feature selection module configured to select and compress the extracted micro-doppler features; and a gesture detection module configured to compare the selected micro-doppler features with a known feature set and to output a detected gesture based on the comparison. The user input detector may be incorporated into a mobile phone for example to provide an always on low power control mechanism for the mobile phone by recognizing user gestures and executing control commands in response to those user gestures.
