12. An apparatus comprising:
-
a first layer comprising first capacitive sensors; and a second layer comprising second capacitive sensors, where the first layer is located on top of the second layer, where the first capacitive sensors are arranged in a substantially ring-shaped pattern, and where the second capacitive sensors are arranged in a pattern sized to fit under the first layer within an inside perimeter of the substantially ring-shaped pattern of the first capacitive sensors. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method comprising:
-
providing a first layer comprising first capacitive sensors arranged in a substantially ring-shaped pattern and first electrical conductors extending from the first capacitive sensors towards outer edges of the first layer; providing a second layer comprising second capacitive sensors and second electrical conductors extending from the second capacitive sensors towards outer edges of the second layer, where the second capacitive sensors are arranged in a pattern having a size about a same size as an inner perimeter of the substantially ring-shaped pattern; and locating the first layer on top of the second layer, where the second electrical conductors are located at least partially under the first capacitive sensors. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
