1. A method comprising:
- receiving a first signal associated with a mode of interaction with a graphical user interface, the mode of interaction associated with one or more of active haptic feedback or passive haptic feedback;
receiving a second signal associated with a user interaction with the graphical user interface;
determining a haptic effect based at least in part on the mode of interaction and the user interaction; and
generating a haptic signal associated with the haptic effect.

Abstract
Systems and methods for shifting haptic feedback function between passive and active modes are disclosed. For example, one disclosed method includes receiving a first signal from a sensor, the first signal associated with a mode of interaction with a graphical user interface; receiving a second signal associated with an interaction with the graphical user interface; determining a haptic feedback effect based at least in part on the mode of interaction with the graphical user interface and the interaction with the graphical user interface; and generating a haptic signal configured to output the haptic feedback effect.
