First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of producing a haptic effect comprising:
- receiving a first gesture signal;
receiving a second gesture signal;
generating an interaction parameter using the first gesture signal and the second gesture signal; and
applying a drive signal to a haptic output device according to the interaction parameter.

Abstract
A system that produces a dynamic haptic effect and generates a drive signal that includes two or more gesture signals. The haptic effect is modified dynamically based on the gesture signals. The haptic effect may optionally be modified dynamically by using the gesture signals and two or more real or virtual device sensor signals such as from an accelerometer or gyroscope, or by signals created from processing data such as still images, video or sound.
