Description
I'm curious as to if it's possible to parse the data of Force Touch track-pads to detect temperature differences or pressure-sensing. MacBooks and MacBook Pros monitor the temperature of the Force Touch track-pad and the palm rest and I'm interested as to if it might be possible to detect acute changes in the temperature to detect computer interaction.
