    Abstract: A squeeze detection system includes an elongated body extending along a longitudinal direction. The elongated body has a handle. A sensor assembly is positioned within the elongated body proximate the handle. The sensor assembly includes conductive target mounted to the elongated body. An inductive sensor is also mounted to the elongated body. A gap is defined between a coil of the inductive sensor and a target surface of the conductive target. The conductive target and the inductive sensor are mounted to the elongated body such that a size of the gap is changeable in order to detect a squeeze in either a first direction or a second direction within a plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction at the handle of the elongated body. The first and second directions are perpendicular.
