Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer-readable mediums for classifying a region and an intensity of a contact. A method includes obtaining, from a plurality of acoustic sensors provided on an inner surface of a bumper of the apparatus, a combined acoustic signal, the combined acoustic signal being based on an input signal provided to the plurality of acoustic sensors, determining, using a trained machine learning model that has been trained with acoustic signals and corresponding position and intensity information of impacts on a plurality of regions of an outer surface of the bumper, the region of the contact on the bumper with respect to the plurality of regions and the intensity of the contact, based on the combined acoustic signal, and determining a motion of the apparatus based on the region of the contact, the intensity of the contact, and an operating mode of the apparatus.
