1. A system, comprising:
a tactile sensor; and
a motion detection component that is configured to
determine a combined three-dimensional (3D) velocity of a movement that has been detected via the tactile sensor with respect to an x-axis of a reference plane, a y-axis of the reference plane, and a rate of change of a force with respect to time that corresponds to the x-axis or the y-axis, and
based on the combined 3D velocity of the movement, dynamically adjust a defined unclick force threshold with respect to a detection of an unclick event corresponding to the tactile sensor.
