First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for providing multi-dimensional haptic touch screen interaction, comprising:
- detecting a force applied to a touch screen by a first object, wherein the touch screen comprises a first and second display tile contacting the first object, wherein the first and second display tile of the touch screen move in a plurality of planes to apply a force on the first object and a second object, respectively;
determining a magnitude, a direction, and a location of the force applied to the first and second display tile of the touch screen; and
determining a haptic force feedback to be applied by the first display tile of the touch screen on the first object based on the magnitude, the direction, and the location of the force applied to the first and second display tile of the touch screen;
where the touch screen locks for a user annotation in response to a detected force on the touch screen in a second position.

Abstract
A method, system, and one or more computer-readable storage media for providing multi-dimensional haptic touch screen interaction are provided herein. The method includes detecting a force applied to a touch screen by an object and determining a magnitude, direction, and location of the force. The method also includes determining a haptic force feedback to be applied by the touch screen on the object based on the magnitude, direction, and location of the force applied to the touch screen, and displacing the touch screen in a specified direction such that the haptic force feedback is applied by the touch screen on the object.

10. A computing system for providing multi-dimensional haptic touch screen interaction, comprising:
-
a haptic touch screen device comprising a touch screen and a force sensor, wherein the force sensor is configured to detect a force applied to the touch screen by a first object, and wherein the touch screen comprises a first and second display tile contacting the first object and a second object, respectively, wherein the first and second display tile of the touch screen move in a plurality of planes to apply a force on the first and second object, respectively; a processor that is adapted to execute stored instructions; and a system memory, wherein the system memory comprises code configured to;
determine a magnitude, a direction, and a location of the force applied to the first and second display tile of the touch screen; anddetermine a haptic force feedback to be applied by the first display tile of the touch screen on the first object based on the magnitude, the direction, and the location of the force applied to the first and second display tile of the touch screen, where the touch screen locks for a user annotation in response to a detected force on the touch screen in a second position. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. One or more computer-readable storage media for storing computer-readable instructions, the computer-readable instructions providing a system for providing multi-dimensional haptic touch screen interaction when executed by one or more processing devices, the computer-readable instructions comprising code configured to:
-
detect a force applied to a touch screen by a first finger of a user, wherein the touch screen comprises a first and second display tile contacting the first finger and a second finger of a user, respectively, wherein the first and second display tile of the touch screen move in a plurality of planes to apply a force on the first and the second finger, respectively; determine a magnitude, a direction, and a location of the force applied to the first and second display tile of the touch screen; determine a haptic force feedback to be applied by the first display tile of the touch screen on the first finger of the user based on the magnitude, the direction, and the location of the force applied to the first and second display tile of the touch screen, where the touch screen locks for a user annotation in response to a detected force on the touch screen in a second position.
