Why is it important?
Unlike prior work that has focused on metallic objects, our technique recognizes non-metallic objects such as food, different types of fruits, liquids, and other types of objects that are often found around a home or in a workplace.
Perspectives
In this paper, we present a contact-based object recognition technique on interactive fabrics using capacitive sensing. Our technique senses and recognizes non-metallic objects that are common in homes or workspaces, such as food items, dinnerware, plastic, and paper products. When an object is in contact with the fabric, our technique recognizes the object based on its capacitance footprint.
