Hardware

Immersion has many years of experience successfully designing, prototyping and integrating force feedback hardware devices. Prior to any force-feedback design and software integration, we need a force-feedback device in the form of a rotary knob, a slider, a joystick, a touchpad, or other envisioned solutions. An Immersion force feedback device is equipped with actuators to create forces such as vibrations, springs, detents, barriers, matrices, N-ways switches, and more. It includes sensors to read positions, switches, and a communication port such as CAN-bus, serial, or USB. Embedded electronics monitor the input positions, calculate and output the force effects and manage the communications with the host computer.
