Immersion touchscreen system gives tactile feedback
July 25, 2006
SAN JOSE, Calif. - Immersion Corp., developer and licensor of touch-feedback technology, is now shipping its TouchSense System - the next generation of its TouchSense technology. The TouchSense System includes actuators, control boards and a software development kit. It supplies tactile feedback for a touchscreen-user interface.
When a user touches the screen, a signal is sent to the touchscreen controller, from where a precise location for the point of contact is sent to the host application.
"It is important that device manufacturers offer the maximum possible amount of sensory feedback for their input devices, as users often can't confirm their input selection and become frustrated," said Jack Gold, president of J. Gold Associates. "Tactile feedback will add a substantially improved user experience with more surety of confirming each touchpoint selection, regardless of the surrounding environment."
