Researchers have developed a method to recover typed text by analyzing laptop microphone audio. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained on log-mel spectrograms of individual keystrokes, achieving approximately 85% top-1 character accuracy on self-collected data. A PyTorch pipeline for this acoustic keystroke recovery is also available. AI
