  • Multi-press input and control device and process
    Patent number: 10474246
    Abstract: A keypad having a keypad frame and at least three input devices arranged in a grid layout within the keypad frame. A signal output is generated by the keypad after two sequential actuations of any two selected input devices of the at least three input devices. A first selected input device of the two selected input devices selects a block of signal outputs associated with the first selected input device, the block of signal outputs being mapped to match the grid layout of the at least three input devices. A second selected input device of the two selected input devices selects a particular signal output from the block of signal outputs, the second selected input device corresponding in a relative position with a position of the particular signal output in the block of signal outputs.
