    Abstract: A system including sensors and a processor is described. The sensors are configured to sense force. The processor is configured to receive force measurements from the sensors and identify touch locations based on the force measurements. The processor is further configured to provide at least one user interface element based on the touch locations.

    Abstract: A system including sensors and a processor is described. The sensors are configured to sense force. The processor receives force measurements from the sensors. The force measurements correspond to touch locations. The processor is also configured to detect a gesture based on the force measurements and the touch locations and to provide at least one signal indicating an identification of the gesture.

    Abstract: A system for determining a user indication is disclosed. The system includes a communication interface configured to send a signal to be used to propagate a freely propagating signal through a propagating medium with a surface and receive the freely propagating signal that has been disturbed by a disturbance on the surface. The system also includes a processor coupled to the communication interface and configured to process the received signal to determine a user indication associated with the disturbance.

    Abstract: A sensor includes a plurality of piezoresistive elements. A physical disturbance sensor may be formed by configuring the piezoresistive elements in a resistive bridge configuration. A signal transmitter is electrically connected to the physical disturbance sensor and configured to send an encoded signal to the piezoresistive elements of the resistive bridge configuration. A signal receiver is electrically connected to the piezoresistive elements and configured to receive a signal from the physical disturbance sensor. The received signal from the physical disturbance sensor is correlated with the sent encoded signal in determining a measure of physical disturbance. A system for detecting a location of a touch input on a surface of a propagating medium includes a piezoresistive sensor coupled to the propagating medium. The piezoresistive sensor is configured to at least detect a force, pressure, or applied strain of the touch input on the propagating medium.

    Abstract: Determining a touch contact location is disclosed. A signal that has been disturbed by a touch input on a surface is received. The received signal is transformed to determine a spatial domain signal. The spatial domain signal is compared with an expected signal associated with a potential location of a source of a disturbance caused by the touch input. The touch contact location of the touch input is determined based at least in part on the comparison.

    Abstract: Detecting a touch input force is disclosed. A signal to be used to propagate a propagating signal through a propagating medium with a surface is sent. The propagating signal that has been disturbed by a touch input with an amount of force on the surface is received. The received signal is processed to determine an identifier associated with the amount of force.

    Abstract: A haptic system is described. The haptic system includes a plurality of actuators, a plurality of receivers and at least one transmitter. Each of the actuators is configured to provide a vibration in response to an input signal. The receivers are configured to sense received vibrations from the actuators and to provide vibrational feedback based on the received vibrations. The transmitter(s) are configured to provide the input signal to each of the actuators. The receivers are coupled with the transmitter(s) and provide the vibrational feedback for the transmitter(s). The vibrational feedback indicates a phase difference between vibrations of the actuators at a particular location.
