Abstract
An electronic device includes a housing and a strain sensor group attached on a wall of the housing. The strain sensor group includes at least one strain sensor each configured to detect deformation of the wall in a single direction. When a user presses the housing, the strain sensor group detects deformation of the wall and generates a detection signal indicating direction and magnitude of deformation of the wall. At least one analog-to-digital converter converts the detection signal into a digital signal, and a controller triggers a first event in the electronic device based on the digital signal.
