Abstract

Modular sensing assemblies can be used to detect user input at an electronic device. Example user inputs include touch inputs, fingerprint inputs, panning inputs, audio inputs, biometric inputs, and the like. Inputs received using the modular sensing assemblies can be used to control the graphical output of a display of the electronic device. The modular sensing assemblies can be configured as, for example, a power button, a key of a keyboard, a control button (e.g., a volume control), a home button, a crown, and the like.
