Human-Machine Interaction via Dual Modes of Voice and Gesture Enabled by Triboelectric Nanogenerator and Machine Learning.

ABSTRACT: With the development of science and technology, human-machine interaction has brought great benefits to the society. Here, we design a voice and gesture signal translator (VGST), which can translate natural actions into electrical signals and realize efficient communication in human-machine interface. By spraying silk protein on the copper of the device, the VGST can achieve improved output and a wide frequency response of 20-2000 Hz with a high sensitivity of 167 mV/dB, and the resolution of frequency detection can reach 0.1 Hz. By designing its internal structure, its resonant frequency and output voltage can be adjusted. The VGST can be used as a high-fidelity platform to effectively recover recorded music and can also be combined with machine learning algorithms to realize the function of speech recognition with a high accuracy rate of 97%. It also has good antinoise performance to recognize speech correctly even in noisy environments. Meanwhile, in gesture recognition, the triboelectric translator is able to recognize simple hand gestures and to judge the distance between hand and the VGST based on the principle of electrostatic induction. This work demonstrates that triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) technology can have great application prospects and significant advantages in human-machine interaction and high-fidelity platforms.
