1. Data processing apparatus comprising:

  • memory configured to store target location data representative of the location of a target;

    a position determining component configured to generate a position signal representative of a position of the data processing apparatus;

    an orientation determining component configured to generate an orientation signal representative of an orientation of the data processing apparatus;

    a haptic transducer configured to provide haptic feedback to a user of the data processing apparatus; and

    a processor configured to process the target location data, position signal and orientation signal in order to generate a transducer control signal that is configured to actuate the haptic transducer to provide directional haptic feedback to a user relative to the target location.
