An information processing apparatus (100) according to the present application includes two or more force sensors (110) that each detect a force of two or more different fingers of a user, and a processing unit (122) that executes information processing related to measurement of forces of the two or more different fingers based on detection results detected by each of the two or more force sensors (110).

Described herein are controllers with sensor-rich controls for enhanced controller functionality. An example control may include a pressure sensor that is configured to detect an amount of a force of a press on a cover of the control based at least in part on a proximity of a metal layer to the pressure sensor. This control may further include a touch sensor for detecting an object contacting the cover of the control. Additional embodiments disclose, among other things, integrated trackpads and D-pads, as well as backlighting features that indicate a functional state of the controller.
