Abstract: Techniques enabling improved classification of touch or hover interactions of objects with a touch sensitive surface of a device are presented. A speaker of the device can emit an ultrasonic audio signal comprising a first frequency distribution. A microphone of the device can detect a reflected audio signal comprising a second frequency distribution. The audio signal can be reflected off of an object in proximity to the surface to produce the reflected audio signal. A classification component can determine movement status of the object, or classify the touch or hover interaction, in relation to the surface, based on analysis of the signals. The classification component also can classify the touch or hover interaction based on such ultrasound data and/or touch surface or other sensor data. The classification component can be trained, using machine learning, to perform classifications of touch or hover interactions of objects with the surface.
