Integrating sensation functionalities into a mobile device using a haptic sleeve
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, via a haptic device, a sensation input captured by one or more haptic components of the haptic device, the sensation input including at least one non-vibratory sensation input;
capturing image data;
storing haptic data corresponding to the received sensation input, wherein storing the haptic data includes storing a position value, an intensity value, and a duration value proportional to the received sensation input;
aligning the captured image data with respect to the received sensation input, wherein the aligning the image data comprises associating specific points of the captured image data with the received sensation input; and
storing the aligned image data.

Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer-readable media for integrating sensation functionalities into a mobile device using a haptic sleeve are presented. According to one or more aspects of the disclosure, a computing device may receive, via a haptic sleeve, sensation input captured by one or more haptic components of the haptic sleeve. Subsequently, the computing device may store haptic data corresponding to the received sensation input. For example, in storing such haptic data, the computing device may store information describing one or more electrical signals received via the one or more haptic components of the haptic sleeve during a period of time corresponding to a particular event, and this stored information may reflect various characteristics of the sensation input received by the computing device in connection with the particular event, such as the magnitude(s), position(s), duration, and/or type(s) of sensation(s) captured during the period of time.
