Adding Touch Feedback to Touch Screens

User interaction is about creating an effective human-machine interface (HMI) that leads to rapid and accurate task completion or a more satisfying experience. Research has found that, when compared to single-mode voice and visual applications, multimodal applications are easier and more intuitive to use. Yet, in the world of computers and digital devices and controls, haptic feedback is often lost.

As a licensed OEM integrator of TouchSense technology by Immersion, Advanced Input Systems can add touch sensations to interactions that have been devoid of tactile confirmation—like touch screens—to provide a rich, multisensory experience.

A variety of actuators and controllers are available to impart tactile sensations to touch screen users. The correct choice of actuator depends on the touch screen size, touch technology, sealing requirements, and other mechanical and environmental factors.
