1. A method for providing haptic feedback comprising:
- receiving an input signal associated with a user interface event;
determining a haptic feedback signal based at least in part on the input signal; and
determining whether to output the haptic feedback signal to a haptic output device based at least in part on a haptic feedback rate, wherein the haptic feedback rate comprises a periodic synchronization signal.

10. An electronic device comprising:
-
a display configured to display a user interface; a haptic output device configured to receive a haptic signal and output a haptic effect; and a processor in communication with the display and the haptic output device and configured to; receive an input signal associated with a user interface event; determine a haptic feedback signal based at least in part on the input signal; and determine whether to output the haptic feedback signal to the haptic output device based at least in part on a haptic feedback rate, wherein the haptic feedback rate comprises a periodic synchronization signal. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
