Abstract: A system may include a sensor configured to output a sensor signal indicative of a distance between the sensor and a mechanical member associated with the sensor, a measurement circuit communicatively coupled to the sensor and configured to determine a physical force interaction with the mechanical member based on the sensor signal, and a compensator configured to monitor the sensor signal and to apply a compensation factor to the sensor signal to compensate for changes to properties of the sensor based on at least one of changes in a distance between the sensor and the mechanical member and changes in a temperature associated with the sensor.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to methods and apparatuses for controlling an operation of a vibrational output system and/or an operation of an input sensor system, wherein the controller is for use in a device comprising the vibrational output system and the input sensor system. A controller comprises an input configured to receive an indication of activation or de-activation of an output of the vibrational output system; and an adjustment module configured to adjust the operation of the vibrational output system and/or the operation of the input sensor system based on the indication to reduce an interference expected to be caused by the output of the vibrational output system on the input sensory system.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compensation circuitry for compensating for a thermal effect in an output signal output by a force sensor. The compensation circuitry comprises monitoring circuitry configured to monitor one or more electrical parameters of the resistive force sensor and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine an absolute resistance value for the force sensor based on the one or more monitored electrical parameters and to adjust one or more operational parameters of the force sensor system based at least in part on the determined absolute resistance value.

Abstract: A method may include receiving an input signal, generating a baseline signal based on the input signal, generating a corrected input signal by subtracting the baseline signal from the input signal, determining a threshold level change of the input signal when the corrected input signal exceeds a level change threshold, and responsive to the threshold level change, updating the baseline signal to the level change threshold.
