Embodiments included herein are directed towards a method for determining a temperature-compensated touch state of a device, and related systems. The method may include receiving, by a processor of the device and from a first sensor of the device, a first measured value corresponding to a first sensor measurement captured by the first sensor. The method may further include receiving, by the processor and from a temperature sensor of the device, a temperature value corresponding to a first temperature measurement associated with the device and captured by the temperature sensor. The method may also include adjusting a signal corresponding to the first sensor measurement based upon, at least in part, the temperature value, to create a temperature-compensated touch signal. The method may additionally include determining, by the processor, the temperature-compensated touch state of the device based upon, at least in part, the temperature-compensated touch signal.

Temperature-compensated touch sensing

A farm implement for harvesting corn (sometimes called maize). The harvester is usable with a farm type combine and is particularly designed to be used in fields that have been planted either by a broadcast method at ground level or from the air, or in clearly spaced rows at spacings which might vary from the usual. The harvester is distinguished by the ear-stripping fingers on a reel at the front of the carrying combine. The fingers strip the ears from the corn stalks in front of the carrying combine and carry them to a delivery auger, which is a standard part of the combine, to be delivered to husking rolls in the combine for husking.
