Original Abstract Submitted
computing devices, touchpads, and related methods for adjusting a force threshold for touch input on a touchpad are disclosed. in one example, a computing device comprises a force sensing touchpad, a processor, and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to receive a first contact on the touchpad. an area of touch of the first contact is determined, and an adjusted force threshold for touch input is determined based at least on the area of the touch. a second contact is received on the touchpad, and a touch force of the second contact is determined. based at least on determining that the touch force exceeds the adjusted force threshold, a touch input on the touchpad is registered.
