Abstract
A wireless accessory has one or more sensors positioned at an outer periphery of its housing, thereby forming a knob-like input. The sensors may be configured to detect a change in contact force or contact location of first and second fingertips at respective first and second opposite sides of the periphery. An input gesture is determined based on the detected change, and a command corresponding to the gesture may be executed.
