1. A system comprising:
- an actuator configured to receive an actuator signal and to output a force to a surface;
a sensor configured to detect a response to the force and to transmit a sensor signal associated with the response;
a processor configured to;
transmit the actuator signal;
receive the sensor signal;
determine a resonant frequency of the surface based at least in part on the sensor signal, wherein the resonant frequency is based in part on a user interaction; and
output a signal associated with the resonant frequency.

Abstract
Systems and methods for resonance detection are disclosed. For example, one method for resonance detection includes the step of transmitting an actuator signal to an actuator coupled to a surface of a device. The actuator signal is configured to cause the actuator to output a force to the surface. The method further includes the steps of receiving a response of the surface to the force; determining a resonant frequency of the surface based at least in part on the response; and outputting a signal indicative of the resonant frequency.
