Original Abstract Submitted
A haptic feedback system for a vehicle acceleration pedal includes an acceleration pedal configured to control acceleration of a motor of a vehicle, and a vibration transducer mechanically connected with the acceleration pedal. The vibration transducer is configured to vibrate the acceleration pedal according to a haptic feedback signal supplied to the vibration transducer. The haptic feedback system includes at least one vehicle sensor configured to sense one or more vehicle operation parameters, and a vehicle control module configured to obtain the one or more vehicle operation parameters via the at least one vehicle sensor, and selectively supply the haptic feedback signal to the vibration transducer according to the one or more vehicle operation parameters, to selectively vibrate the acceleration pedal.
