1. A touch-sensitive actuator assembly configured for use with a load control device configured to control an amount of power delivered to an electrical load, the actuator assembly comprising:

  • a resilient, deformable membrane supporting a plurality of discrete force-sensitive impedance members; and

    an actuator having a plurality of posts that are spaced from each other, each post configured to actuate one of the plurality of discrete force-sensitive impedance members by transferring a force applied to the actuator at a location proximate to the post to a corresponding location on the membrane;

    wherein each of the plurality of discrete force-sensitive impedance members is configured to, when actuated, cause the load control device to apply one of a plurality of dimming levels to the electrical load.
