    It depends on what you mean.

    In electronics, a switch debounce is an analogue filter or logical feedback to insure that a single closure (or opening) of a physical switch is only interpret as a single transition logically. (What the schematic shows)

    But an operational system, hence a computer/program, having switch inputs may have response times much much higher than this. In terms of pulse duration and transition rate. To me, it is incorret to address this a "debounce". Though, I have heard this in regards to the tilt all over the place. It is by design behaviour, physical modelling, computational priority etc.

    For WPC, the raw switch interpretation require some 2.5 ms state duration for a stable detection.
