1. A method of producing a haptic effect comprising:

  • receiving a first input signal from a virtual simulation or animation;

    receiving a second input signal from the virtual simulation or animation;

    if the second input signal has a lower priority than the first input signal, generating a dynamic interaction parameter using the first input signal, the second input signal, and a haptic level corresponding to a threshold of perception;

    if the second input signal has a higher priority than the first input signal, generating a dynamic interaction parameter using the first input signal, the second input signal, and a haptic level corresponding to a threshold of attention break-in;

    applying a drive signal to a haptic output device according to the dynamic interaction parameter allowing a user to distinguish between the first input signal and the second input signal.
