==HAPTIC INTERFACE FOR COMPUTING DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18597239 titled 'HAPTIC INTERFACE FOR COMPUTING DEVICES

'''Simplified Explanation:'''
The technology involves providing haptic feedback to a user of a computing device based on their interactions with the device.

'''Key Features and Innovation:'''
* User input is received and the type of interaction is determined.
* The technology identifies if the interaction corresponds to a haptic feedback effect.
* A specific haptic feedback effect is selected from a curated suite of effects.
* The haptic feedback module of the device provides the selected feedback for the user to feel.

'''Potential Applications:'''
This technology can be used in virtual reality systems, gaming consoles, medical devices, and assistive technologies for individuals with visual impairments.

'''Problems Solved:'''
This technology enhances user experience by providing tactile feedback, improving accessibility for users with disabilities, and increasing immersion in virtual environments.

'''Benefits:'''
* Enhanced user experience
* Improved accessibility
* Increased immersion in virtual environments
* Better feedback for user interactions

'''Commercial Applications:'''
The technology can be applied in the development of gaming peripherals, medical devices, virtual reality headsets, and assistive technologies for individuals with disabilities.

'''Prior Art:'''
Prior art related to this technology may include research on haptic feedback systems, user interface design, and virtual reality technologies.

'''Frequently Updated Research:'''
Researchers are constantly exploring new ways to improve haptic feedback technology, enhance user interactions, and optimize the user experience in various applications.

'''Questions about Haptic Feedback Technology:'''
1. How does haptic feedback technology enhance user interactions with computing devices?

==Original Abstract Submitted==

The technology involves providing haptic feedback to a user of a computing device. For instance, user input associated with a program of the computing device is received by a user interface module of the computing device. One or more processors of the computing device determine a kind of interaction corresponding to the user input. The one or more processors identify whether the kind of interaction is associated with one or more haptic feedback effects of a curated suite of haptic effects. Upon identifying that the kind of interaction is associated with one or more haptic feedback effect, the one or more processors select a particular haptic feedback effect from the curated suite of haptic effects. And the one or more processors are able to cause a haptic feedback module of the computing device to provide the particular haptic feedback effect for sensation by the user.
