The contributions of this paper are: 1) We describe the design of a novel‚ wearable sensor for bio-acoustic signal acquisition (Figure 1). 2) We describe an analysis approach that enables our system to resolve the location of finger taps on the body. 2 We present Skinput‚ a technology that appropriates the human body for acoustic transmission‚ allowing the skin to be used as an input surface. In particular‚ we resolve the location of finger taps on the arm and hand
