System Design and the Benefit of Working with Immersion
Force feedback requires technically sophisticated systems. At their most basic level they incorporate technologies from many disciplines-mechanical, electrical, software, firmware and controls. Though each of these areas presents interesting and difficult design challenges independently, the success of a force feedback interface ultimately lies in how these individual sub-systems work together. It is imperative that each of these sub-systems be designed with careful consideration of the capabilities, limitations and costs of the other sub-systems. Failing to consider the profound impact that each sub-system has on the others is a recipe for difficulty.
Immersion Corporation has a staff of application engineers who have helped dozens of developers add realistic haptic effects into their applications. Whether through email and phone support or multi-day on-site visits, these application engineers can help with anything including API questions, effect design, coding, debugging, and haptic performance optimization.
