Abstract

An electronic device such as a voice-controlled speaker may have an array of strain gauges and light-emitting diodes. The light-emitting diodes may be configured to display dynamically adjustable button icons overlapping the strain gauges. Force measurements from the strain gauges may be used to adjust speaker output and other device operations.
