Personalize your haptic feedback to enhance your XR experience. Interhaptics Follow Mar 18 · 3 min read

On our previous blog posts, we saw how haptics bring value to interactions in an XR environment and how it puts the user in an immersive mode . However, what can we do with an object that lack certain specifications or functionalities? Haptics can be added to these objects, resulting in a realistic outcome. You can easily design any haptic composition you want with Haptics Composer.

Train with haptics from Interhaptics demo

With the help of a script, we personalized the haptic feedback in the train example (found in this Demo). The locomotive and the wagon are two parts connected by an axis. When you hold one side of the train and apply movement to the object, it will transmit a haptic signal starting with the moment in which the angles of two parts of the train reach a set limit. In this example, the haptics transmitted by the train motion show that haptics can be transmitted from one object to another.

We personalize the haptic of the train with this script.

Haptics used for smartphones are just a series of vibrations. These haptic feedbacks bring realism to the scene.

Using Unity’s animations, and the event-keys of animation feature we transmitted the emotions by providing haptic when in contact with a heart, resulting in a heartbeat sensation. In the demo we give users the means to bring their virtual hearts to life.
