1. A system for outputting haptic effects comprising:
- a processor configured to;
receive a signal;
determine a haptic effect based in part on the signal by;
identifying one or more transitions in the signal; and
synching one or more haptic effects to the one or more transitions; and
output a haptic signal associated with the haptic effect.

Abstract
Systems and methods for generating haptic effects associated with transitions in audio signals are disclosed. One disclosed system for outputting haptic effects includes a processor configured to: receive a signal; determine a haptic effect based in part on the signal; output a haptic signal associated with the haptic effect; an audio output device configured to receive the signal and output an audible effect; and a haptic output device in communication with the processor and coupled to the touch surface, the haptic output device configured to receive the haptic signal and output the haptic effect.
