SURFACE DETECTION FOR MOBILE DEVICES

Abstract:

A disclosed example includes providing vibration information to a model, the vibration information corresponding to a first vibration measured at a first mobile device when the first mobile device is in a state of non-use by a user, the model based on a plurality of vibration patterns that correspond to second vibrations measured by second mobile devices in different environments; identifying, using the model, one of the vibration patterns that corresponds to the vibration information; determining an environment of the first mobile device based on the one of the vibration patterns; and instructing the first mobile device to modify a functionality of the first mobile device based on the environment.
