Abstract
A system includes: a substrate; a first electrode proximal a center on the substrate; and a second electrode interposed between the first electrode and an edge on the substrate. The system also includes a first coupling region: arranged on a first planar region of the baseplate; offset from the first electrode by a first height; and coupling to the first electrode to yield a first electrical value at the first electrode responsive to application of a force magnitude proximal the center. The system further includes a second coupling region: arranged on a second planar region, offset above the first planar region, of the baseplate; offset from the second electrode by a second height, less than the first nominal gap height; and coupling to the second electrode to yield a second electrical value, approximating the first electrical value, at the second electrode responsive to application of the force magnitude.
