Assignee: SENSATA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G

Claim 8:
9. A system for determining a temperature-compensated touch state of a device, the system comprising:
a first sensor of the device for capturing a first sensor measurement;
a temperature sensor of the device for capturing a first temperature measurement associated with the device;
a processor of the device, the processor configured to:
receive, from the first sensor, a first measured value corresponding to the first sensor measurement;
receive, from the temperature sensor, a temperature value corresponding to the first temperature measurement associated with the device;
cause a signal corresponding to the first sensor measurement to be adjusted based upon, at least in part, the temperature value, to create a temperature-compensated touch signal;
determine the temperature-compensated touch state of the device based upon, at least in part, the temperature-compensated touch signal;
determine that the temperature-compensated touch signal is representative of a touched state of the device base upon, at least in part, the temperature-compensated touch signal minus a baseline delta being above a touched threshold;
indicate that the device is touched;
cause the device to be unlocked after a single touch based upon, at least in part, the indication that the device is touched.
