Vibratory Feedback

Vibratory feedback is the most common form of haptic feedback, in which the haptic interface physically vibrates against the user?s body or parts thereof, at a range of frequencies designed to food the pressure sensors of the user?s nervous system into feeling varying levels of pressure, without actually pushing hard on the user?s skin.

Touchscreen Use in All Weather
Industry News

Touchscreen technology has until now, had one strong disadvantage: In inclement weather, wet, freezing cold hands result from touchscreen use, as gloves and other finger protectors have always made fingers too big and bulky to effectively use touchscreen technology, whilst masking tactile feedback with the glove?s spongy surface.
