Haptics

Haptics refers to the technology and science behind touch and tactile feedback. It allows users to experience sensations through touch, like vibrations or pressures, often used in devices like smartphones, gaming controllers, and virtual reality equipment. By simulating the feel of objects or actions, haptics enhances user interaction and immersion, making experiences more engaging. For instance, when you receive a notification on your phone that vibrates, that’s a basic example of haptic feedback, informing you of an event through touch rather than sound or sight.
