Abstract: The present invention provides a haptic device including a communications interface, an input device, a haptic output device and a processor. The communications interface receives a haptic track file including a list of real-time haptic effect modifiers, associated parameters, and a haptic control signal. The input device receives input from a user including a selection of a real-time haptic effect modifier and a value for an associated parameter. The haptic output device renders one or more haptic effects to the user based on the haptic control signal. The processor decodes the haptic track file, applies the selected real-time haptic effect modifier to the haptic control signal to generate a modified haptic control signal, and provides the modified haptic control signal to the haptic output device. The haptic output device renders one or more modified haptic effects to the user based on the modified haptic control signal.
