SIDE-FORCE DETECTION IN AN INPUT DEVICE HAVING A CAPACITIVE SENSOR
Abstract:
An example a method of detecting a force applied to a side of an input device including sensor electrodes, the method including: detecting first capacitive responses corresponding to a first plurality of sensor electrodes disposed near the side of the input device; detecting second capacitive responses corresponding to a second plurality of sensor electrodes disposed near a center of the input device; and determining a magnitude of the force applied to the side of the input device based on at least one of: a number of the second capacitive responses satisfying a first threshold; or magnitudes of the second capacitive responses.
