Customized Input Sensing for Hand-Held Devices

Proximity Sensors

Proximity sensors detect when a hand is near the sensor, allowing individual device components to be activated without contact. An example of this is illuminating specific areas of a device only when input is required.

A variant of the capacitive sensor, proximity sensors can also be combined with a force sensing resistor to create a force-activated switch function.
