ABSTRACT
In this paper we propose a system called SONDI that uses high frequency audio signals (called audio signatures) to pair mobile devices with fixed devices in smart environments. The system allows users to discover interaction possibilities in the environment they might have otherwise missed, through unobtrusive and non-audible signals sent from fixed devices. Benefits of SONDI include fast discovery times (<1.8 seconds), effortless interaction from the user, and high availability as SONDI does not require any additional hardware on the users' mobile devices.

Spontaneous Device Association Using Inaudible Audio Signatures
AM '16: Proceedings of the Audio Mostly 2016We describe a system that uses high-frequency audio signatures for spontaneous device association between mobile devices and physical end-points in smart environments. The system utilizes a method for extracting signatures from recorded audio signals, ...
Spartacus: spatially-aware interaction for mobile devices through energy-efficient audio sensing
MobiSys '13: Proceeding of the 11th annual international conference on Mobile systems, applications, and servicesRecent developments in ubiquitous computing enable applications that leverage personal mobile devices, such as smartphones, as a means to interact with other devices in their close proximity. In this paper, we propose Spartacus, a mobile system that ...
CapCam: Enabling Rapid, Ad-Hoc, Position-Tracked Interactions Between Devices
ISS '16: Proceedings of the 2016 ACM International Conference on Interactive Surfaces and SpacesWe present CapCam, a novel technique that enables smartphones (and similar devices) to establish quick, ad-hoc connections with a host touchscreen device, simply by pressing a device to the screen's surface. Pairing data, used to bootstrap a ...
