1. A method comprising:
- receiving an electronic document comprising a plurality of pages;
receiving metadata indicating a type of paper associated with the electronic document;
associating the metadata with the electronic document based on a second characteristic associated with the electronic document;
generating and transmitting a display signal configured to cause display of the at least a portion of the electronic document;
in response to a multi-page turn gesture on a touch sensitive input device, performing a multi-page turn by causing multiple pages of the plurality of pages to turn in succession; and
generating and transmitting a haptic signal in response to a particular page of the plurality of pages being passed during the multi-page turn, the haptic signal configured to cause a haptic output device to output a haptic effect.

Abstract
Systems and methods for haptic and gesture-driven paper simulation are disclosed. For example, one disclosed method includes the steps of receiving an electronic document; receiving metadata associated with the electronic document, the metadata comprising a characteristic indicating a type of paper; generating and transmitting a display signal configured to cause display of the at least a portion of the document; and generating and transmitting a haptic signal based on the type of paper, the haptic signal configured to cause a haptic output device to generate a haptic effect.

23. A system comprising:
-
a computer-readable medium; a touch-sensitive input device; a display; and a processor in communication with the computer-readable medium, the touch-sensitive input device, and the display, the processor configured to; receive an electronic document comprising a plurality of pages; generate and transmit a display signal configured to cause display of the at least a portion of the electronic document; in response to a multi-page turn gesture on the touch-sensitive input device, perform a multi-page turn by causing multiple pages of the plurality of pages to turn in succession; and generate and transmit a haptic signal in response to a particular page of the plurality of pages being passed during the multi-page turn, the haptic signal configured to cause a haptic output device to output a haptic effect. - View Dependent Claims (24)
