  • receiving, by a controller unit operatively coupled with the touch plate, a signal from the touch plate including a first edge, a second edge and a third edge, wherein the first edge is a transition beyond a threshold;

    receiving the second edge of the signal after receiving the first edge of the signal, wherein the second edge is a transition beyond the threshold;

    responsive to receiving the second edge of the signal, determining whether the second edge was received within an initial tolerance associated with the receipt of the first edge;

    responsive to determining that the second edge was not received within the initial tolerance, restarting the method with the second edge as a new first edge of the signal received and waiting to receive a new second edge of the signal received;

    responsive to determining that the second edge was received within the initial tolerance, receiving the third edge within a match tolerance, wherein the third edge is a transition beyond the threshold; and
