Force Sensor in an Input Device

An input device for use with an electronic device, the input device comprising:

• a cover element;
• one or more first force sensors positioned around a peripheral edge of the cover element, each first force sensor configured to detect a first force input applied to the cover element;
• and
• a second force sensor positioned below the cover element, the second force sensor configured to detect a second force input applied to the cover element.

An input device for use with an electronic device, the input device comprising:

• a cover element;
• a fingerprint sensor positioned below the cover element, the fingerprint sensor configured to capture a fingerprint of a finger as the finger approaches or contacts the cover element;
• a force sensor positioned below the fingerprint sensor and over a support element, the force sensor configured to detect a force input applied to the cover element;
• and
• a compliant layer positioned below the cover element and around at least a portion of the fingerprint sensor.
