Abstract
Particular embodiments described herein provide for a tablet computer that can be configured to include a display, an antenna, a plurality of capacitance-based proximity sensors, and a configuration engine. The configuration engine uses the capacitance-based proximity sensors to determine a configuration of the tablet computer when the tablet computer is attached to an accessory. The capacitance-based proximity sensors can be specific absorption rate (SAR) proximity sensors used to determine when to reduce radiation from one or more antenna when the tablet computer is not coupled to the accessory and to determine a configuration of the tablet computer when the tablet computer is coupled to an accessory.
