Transmission of haptic input

A method for presenting haptic information on a haptic presenter configured to operate according to haptic presentation properties, said method comprising:

• receiving haptic content, wherein the haptic content is aligned according to original haptic presentation properties;
• obtaining an alignment point according to said original haptic presentation properties, wherein the original haptic presentation properties relate to one or more of:
• a size of the original haptic presentation device;
• and
• an orientation of the original haptic presentation device;
• obtaining a corresponding point according to the haptic presentation properties of the haptic presenter based on the alignment point according to said original haptic presentation properties, wherein the haptic presentation properties of the haptic presenter relate to one or more of:
• a size of the haptic presenter;
• and
• an orientation of the haptic presenter;
• and
• presenting the haptic content at the corresponding point, wherein the presented haptic content corresponds to the received haptic content,
• wherein the original haptic presentation properties is different from the haptic presentation properties of the haptic presenter.

A haptic device for presenting haptic information comprising:

• a haptic presenter configured to operate according to haptic presentation properties;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive haptic content, wherein the haptic content is aligned according to original haptic presentation properties;
• obtain an alignment point according to said original haptic presentation properties, wherein the original haptic presentation properties relate to one or more of:
• a size of the original haptic presentation device;
• and
• an orientation of the original haptic presentation device;
• obtain a corresponding point according to the haptic presentation properties of the haptic device based on the alignment point according to said original haptic presentation properties, wherein the haptic presentation properties of the haptic device relate to one or more of:
• a size of the haptic device;
• and
• an orientation of the haptic device;
• and
• present the haptic content at the corresponding point, wherein the presented haptic content corresponds to the received haptic content,
• wherein the original haptic presentation properties is different from the haptic presentation properties.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium encoded with instructions that, when executed on a processor, perform a method for use in a system comprising a transmitting haptic device, comprising a first haptic presentation device having an original set of haptic presentation properties, and a receiving haptic device, comprising a second haptic presentation device having a second set of haptic presentation properties, said method comprising:

• receiving haptic content in said transmitting haptic device;
• obtaining an alignment point for the haptic content according to said original set of haptic presentation properties in said transmitting haptic device, wherein the original set of haptic presentation properties relates to one or more of:
• a size of the first haptic presentation device;
• and
• an orientation of the first haptic presentation device;
• transmitting, by said transmitting haptic device, the haptic content to said receiving haptic device;
• obtaining, in said receiving haptic device, a corresponding point to said alignment point according to the second set of haptic presentation properties for the receiving haptic device, wherein the second set of haptic presentation properties relates to one or more of:
• a size of the second haptic presentation device;
• and
• an orientation of the second haptic presentation device;
• and
• presenting the haptic content in the receiving haptic device at the corresponding point,
• wherein the original set of haptic presentation properties is different from the second set of haptic presentation properties.
