Systems and Methods for Parameter Modification of Haptic Effects
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining, by an electronic device, a haptic effect;
receiving, by the electronic device, an input signal indicating an environmental condition;
modifying, by the electronic device, the haptic effect based at least in part on the input signal;
generating, by the electronic device, a haptic output signal based at least in part on the modified haptic effect, the haptic output signal configured to cause a haptic output device to output the modified haptic effect; and
outputting, by the electronic device, the haptic output signal.

Abstract
Systems and methods for parameter modification of one or more haptic effects are disclosed. In one embodiment an electronic device determines a haptic effect. The electronic device can receive an input signal indicating an environmental condition. The input signal may be generated by an environmental sensor. The environmental condition may be a temperature, vibration, noise, movement, trait of a user such as a user'"'"'s weight, gender, age, height, another suitable trait of a user, another suitable environmental condition, or a combination thereof. The electronic device may modify the haptic effect based at least in part on the input signal. The electronic device can generate a haptic output signal based at least in part on the modified haptic effect. The haptic output signal may be configured to cause a haptic output device to output the modified haptic effect. The electronic device may output the haptic output signal.
