  • Method for generating haptic feedback
    Patent number: 11352060
    Abstract: A method and a device generate haptic feedback for a vehicle driver, the haptic feedback being generated by applying an additional torque, which alternates about an average total steering torque, to a steering grip of a vehicle by way of an actuator. When the present haptic feedback is recognized and/or simultaneously when haptic feedback occurs, the actuator is actuated such that the magnitude of the average total steering torque is increased by a compensation torque.
