Abstract
A capacitance module may include a set of electrodes, a controller in communication with the set of electrodes, and memory in communication with the processor. The memory may include programmed instructions that cause the controller, when executed, to receive a typing input; take a capacitance measurement in response to receiving the typing input; store an attribute associated with the capacitance measurement; and determine an input type of a subsequent user input over the set of electrodes based, at least in part, on the stored attribute.
