1. A method for haptic feedback, comprising:
- using a haptic feedback subsystem coupled with a touch surface, performing;
sensing touch input in at least one area of the touch surface; and
using a processor device, performing;
determining quantitative features of the touch input;
determining temporal features of the touch input; and
generating a command represented by the quantitative and temporal features of the touch input, said command producing at least one of;
an alphanumeric character, a symbol, and an execution instruction.
