Adaptive filtering of a load cell of a point-of-sale (POS) device

1. A method, comprising:

finding a center frequency produced on a load cell measuring a zero stable weight that substantially matches a vibrational frequency for a vibration at a vibrational peak for the vibration when a state of the load cell indicates the load cell is not in use;

determining a width frequency wide enough in frequency to span the vibrational peak;

resolving a magnitude response at the center frequency that is inversely proportional to a vibrational peak magnitude for the vibrational peak, wherein the resolving includes comparing the vibrational frequency to data representing a spectral analysis of a vibrational environment for the load cell, the data including vibrational frequencies and magnitudes of peaks for those vibrational frequencies, the comparing including using select vibrational frequencies for each peak having a. threshold magnitude as input to a notch filter;

resolving a second magnitude response outside the width frequency;

applying the magnitude response and the second magnitude response as a filter to signals on a load cell when the vibrational frequency is detected in the signals; and

wherein the method is performed individually with regard to each of a first load cell and a second load cell, a first unique instance of the method is performed with regard to a first cell and a second unique instance of the method is performed with regard to a second load cell.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining further includes obtaining the frequency spectrum from data that represents a spectral analysis of a vibrational environment that includes the vibration at the vibrational frequency.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising, providing a unique and separate instance of the method for a second vibrational frequency detected within a vibration environment of the load cell.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising, performing the method as a notch filter that receives the vibration frequency and frequency spectrum as input parameters and dynamically filters the vibrational frequency from the signals on the load cell when present on the load cell.
