Claim 13:
14. The method of claim 10, further comprising:
associating capacitance received from each one of more than one capacitor drivers with a corresponding section of the housing, the at least one second pair of conductive plates comprises more than one pair of conductive plates physically aligned to detect the mechanical force at corresponding points on the housing, the more than one capacitive drivers are respectively electrically coupled to different pairs of conductive plates;
associating a user input to a respective change in capacitance of different pairs of conductive plates having conductive plates oriented in different planes to detect different deflection types in the housing, the different deflection types being two or more deflection types from among compression, tension, shearing, bending, and torsion;
generating a second notification of a first user input to a user interface device in response to detecting mechanical force exerted at a first point of more than one point; and
generating a third notification of a second user input to the user interface device in response to detecting mechanical force exerted at a second point of the more than one point.
