HAPTIC REPRODUCTION SYSTEM AND DRIVING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17620590 titled 'HAPTIC REPRODUCTION SYSTEM AND DRIVING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a haptic reproduction system and method that allows for the realistic reproduction of tactile sensations on a touch display device. The system includes a touch display device, an upper computer, and a waveform generator.

  • The touch display device consists of a piezoelectric unit, a touch display panel, and a touch driving unit. The piezoelectric unit is located on the touch display panel, while the touch driving unit is responsible for acquiring touch information and transmitting it to the upper computer.
  • The upper computer is connected to the waveform generator and sends a waveform generation instruction based on the touch information received. This instruction is used by the waveform generator to generate a first waveform signal.
  • The piezoelectric unit is connected to the waveform generator and resonates with the touch display panel when driven by the first waveform signal. This resonance leads to a change in friction on the touch surface of the touch display device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Virtual reality and augmented reality: The haptic reproduction system can enhance the immersive experience in virtual and augmented reality applications by providing realistic tactile feedback.
  • Gaming: The system can be used in gaming consoles and devices to provide users with a more engaging and immersive gaming experience through realistic haptic feedback.
  • Medical training and simulations: The system can be utilized in medical training and simulations to recreate realistic tactile sensations, allowing medical professionals to practice procedures and techniques in a more realistic and immersive environment.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Lack of realistic tactile feedback: Traditional touch display devices lack the ability to provide realistic tactile sensations, limiting the user experience and immersion in various applications.
  • Limited haptic feedback options: Existing haptic feedback technologies are often limited in their ability to reproduce a wide range of tactile sensations, resulting in a less immersive and engaging user experience.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced user experience: The haptic reproduction system allows for the realistic reproduction of tactile sensations, providing users with a more immersive and engaging experience in various applications.
  • Improved training and simulations: Medical professionals and trainees can benefit from the realistic tactile feedback provided by the system, allowing for more effective training and simulations in medical procedures.
  • Increased realism in gaming: Gamers can enjoy a more realistic gaming experience with the addition of haptic feedback, enhancing their immersion and engagement in gameplay.
