HAPTIC FEEDBACK FOR STEERING SYSTEM CONTROLS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for haptic feedback for steering system controls, the system comprising:
- a touch sensor input detection module that acquires a touch sensor input from one or more touch sensors of a steering system, identifies a touch gesture type of the touch sensor input, and determines a touch location of the touch gesture type; and
an actuator haptic response driver module that determines a desired haptic feedback based on indexing the touch gesture type and the touch location with respect to a haptic feedback map and controls a steering system actuator to produce a haptic response based on the desired haptic feedback.

Abstract
A system for haptic feedback for steering system controls includes a touch sensor input detection module and an actuator haptic response driver module. The touch sensor input detection module acquires a touch sensor input from one or more touch sensors of a steering system and identifies a touch gesture type of the touch sensor input. The actuator haptic response driver module determines a desired haptic feedback associated with the touch gesture type and controls a steering system actuator to produce a haptic response based on the desired haptic feedback.
