Abstract
A capacitance module may include a substrate; a plurality of capacitance electrodes on the substrate; a pressure sensor incorporated into the capacitance module and in communication with a controller; the plurality of capacitance electrodes being in communication with the controller; memory in communication with the controller having programmed instructions that, when executed, cause the controller to determine an initial pressure measurement of a press input based on a pressure input from the pressure sensor; and determine a maintenance pressure force during the press input based on a capacitance measurement.
