June Newsletter: Achieving Ideal Haptic Feedback in Consumer Electronics
Haptic trackpad went mainstream at CES 2022. Through precise integration of several new technologies, haptic trackpads offer a new way to interact with laptops. The delicate sensation of touch is captured and processed with great accuracy to provide a tactile experience with the trackpad.
Piezo haptic trackpads are the pinnacle of currently available haptic technology. The size of the complete trackpad solution is less than 3 mm. It offers all the functionality without any additional components like solenoids. No additional mechanism is required to provide haptic feedback.
Besides, with piezo haptic trackpads, the problem of a dead zone in the trackpad can be eradicated without sacrificing space or weight. It promotes uniform force-sensing throughout the trackpad by having a single layer of a sensing material that precisely picks up users’ input.
We use haptic technology every day even if we are not aware of it. Vibration is used on many modern touchscreen smartphones. Since smartphone displays are just flat planes of glass, the phone’s vibration is used to replace the tactile sense of buttons, which is achieved by the exact same technology. When piezo haptic trackpads are introduced, mechanical touchpads will soon be a thing of the past for Windows laptops... (Read Article)
