Abstract

In one example a input device for an electronic device comprises a first panel comprising an array of pressure sensors, a second panel comprising an array of apertures in fluid communication with the pressure sensors, and a controller comprising logic, at least partly including hardware logic, to receive a plurality of output signals from the plurality of pressure sensors, determine, from the plurality of output signals, a location of an input on the second panel, and generate a data point on a bitmap corresponding to the location of the input on the second panel. Other examples may be described.
