Abstract
A system of determining a location of a force exerted on a mobile communication device, the system comprising a first pressure sensor disposed within the mobile communication device and adjacent an outer surface of the mobile communication device, wherein the first pressure sensor is attached to the outer surface via a first interface material, wherein the first pressure sensor is configured to detect pressure below the outer surface, a second pressure sensor disposed within the mobile communication device and adjacent the outer surface of the mobile communication device, wherein the second pressure sensor is attached to the outer surface via a second interface material, wherein the second pressure sensor is configured to detect pressure below the outer surface, and a processor coupled to the first and second pressure sensors and configured to activate an associated mobile communication device command in response to the detected pressure being above a threshold.
