Abstract :
We describe a system for robotic measurement of contact sounds. This system is well suited for acquiring impulse-response sound models. A brief explanation of the sound models is included. We also describe experimental results to illustrate the process of acquiring sound models using our system, and a brief analysis of the results. The initial results are promising and could lead to applications in reality-based modeling and object recognition
