    Abstract: Various exemplary embodiments are directed to methods including obtaining an input sample magnitude, filtering the obtained input sample magnitude, generating a sample-to-sample difference based on the filtered input sample magnitude, and engaging an actuator in accordance with a determination that the sample-to-sample difference satisfies a rate threshold. In addition, various exemplary embodiments are directed to devices including a processor, a control sensor operatively coupled to the processor and operable to obtain an input sample magnitude, an input filter operatively coupled to the processor and operable to filter the at least one obtained input magnitude sample, a non-transitory computer-readable medium operatively coupled to the processor and including a rate engine operable to generate a sample-to-sample difference based on the filtered input sample magnitude, and to generate a determination that the sample-to-sample difference satisfies a rate threshold, and a control actuator operatively coupled to the processor and operable to engage an operation mechanism in accordance with the determination that the sample-to-sample difference satisfies a rate threshold.
