Abstract
Haptic pitch control for producing haptic feedback by receiving capability information of a haptic output device, and determining a desired or target perceptual frequency or pitch. A haptic effect is then generated based on the capability information so that the haptic effect is rendered by the haptic output device at the desired or target perceptual frequency or pitch.
Claims20
A method of producing haptic feedback, comprising:
- receiving capability information of a haptic output device;
- determining a target perceptual frequency or pitch;
- and
- generating a haptic effect based on the capability information so that the haptic effect is rendered by the haptic output device at the target perceptual frequency or pitch.
A haptically-enabled system, comprising:
- a memory storing haptic data;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to
- receive capability information of a haptic output device,
- determine a target perceptual frequency or pitch, and
- generate a haptic effect based on the capability information so that the haptic effect is rendered by the haptic output device at the target perceptual frequency or pitch.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the instructions comprising:
- receiving capability information of a haptic output device;
- determining a target perceptual frequency or pitch;
- and
- generating a haptic effect based on the capability information so that the haptic effect is rendered by the haptic output device at the target perceptual frequency or pitch.
