ABSTRACT:
A control system interface integrates an electronic switching or sensing mechanism with an existing or custom-fabricated, functional or decorative equipment panel. The electronic switching or sensing mechanism is located on the rear surface of the equipment panel and a corresponding touch surface is defined on the front surface of the equipment panel. The electronic switching or sensing mechanism is responsive to a stimulus in the proximity of the touch surface, and it provides a control signal to a control system when it senses such a stimulus.
