Abstract:
There is provided an electronic device having a touch-sensing element configured for sensing touches on a surface thereof. A baseline sensitivity setting determines a sensitivity of the touch-sensing element. The touch-sensing element is configured to register a touch that meets or exceeds the baseline sensitivity setting, and to ignore a touch that does not meet the baseline sensitivity setting. The device further includes a sensor that senses an operating condition of the device. A memory of the device includes code executable by the device and configured to adjust the baseline sensitivity setting based upon the sensed operating condition.
