  • Method for generating haptic feedback
    Patent number: 11797097
    Abstract: A method for generating a haptic feedback on a display area operable by finger movements involves sensing a position of a finger on the display area and modulating a coefficient of friction between the finger and the display area is modulated depending on the position. The touchdown positions of two fingers are determined and the friction between each of the fingers and the display area is changed depending on a distance from the touchdown positions of the fingers simultaneously touching the surface.
