SYSTEMS, DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING LOCALIZED HAPTIC EFFECTS

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and devices include at least one actuator positioned within proximity of a user interface (UI) region of an interactive surface. The UI region outputs information to a user and receives input from the user. The at least one actuator provides a haptic effect to the user when interacting with the UI region. The system also includes at least one isolation element positioned adjacent to the at least one actuator. The at least one isolation element suppresses transmission of the haptic effect to an additional UI region of the interactive surface.
