1. A gasket comprising:
a first section forming a frame around an aperture with a center axis, the first section having a first surface defining a plane that is substantially orthogonal to the center axis, the first section having a second surface opposite and parallel to the first surface, the aperture extending from the first surface to the second surface, the frame configured to enframe a sensor package when the sensor package is positioned within the aperture; and
a second section disposed on the first surface of the first section, the second section having a height configured to span a distance between the sensor package and a display module of an electronic device, the second section configured to:
extend across the aperture of the first section at a location between a transmit module of the sensor package and a receive module of the sensor package;
abut the display module of the electronic device; and
shield transmit signals of the transmit module from receive signals of the receive module.
