1. A computing device comprising:

  • a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute processor-executable instructions stored in the non-transitory computer-readable medium to;

    generate a simulated reality environment;

    obtain sensor data indicating an interaction associated with the simulated reality environment, the sensor data obtained at a sampling rate;

    determine, based on the interaction, whether to output a static haptic effect or a dynamic haptic effect;

    responsive to a determination to output a dynamic haptic effect, iteratively during the interaction substantially in real time and substantially at the sampling rate;

    determine, using the obtained sensor data, one or more parameters of the dynamic haptic effect;

    generate one or more haptic signals associated with the dynamic haptic effect based on the one or more parameters; and

    transmit the one or more haptic signals associated with the dynamic haptic effect to a haptic output device to output the dynamic haptic effect in substantially real time.
