With Immersion TouchSense® components and software, OEMs can create a new class of touch displays — “active” touchscreens and button panels — that let players perceive that on-screen buttons press and release as if they were physical buttons.

Touchscreens with tactile feedback can provide a more intuitive, entertaining, and natural experience. Especially in the exciting, noisy, and distracting gaming environment, tactile feedback can give players a more immersive experience, even without adding sound. And for gaming information and management systems, tactile feedback effects can be synchronized with sound and graphical images, allowing enhanced usability that promotes better focus, greater accuracy, and faster time to completion.

More immersive, more intuitive

TouchSense components and software can be used for a wide range of legal gaming applications:

Greater response, greater play

Active touchscreens can range in size from 3 to 32+ inches. These interfaces provide a clear differentiator that can engage users in a new and fun way, such as:

• Pressing on-screen objects supplies unmistakable feedback
• Dragging a finger across onscreen cards produces a click as each card is passed
• Choosing a card from the onscreen deck delivers a confirming snap or bump
• Moving an onscreen lever produces a slight pulse as each rolling display comes to a stop
• Pressing an on-screen rocker switch starts an increasing or decreasing vibration corresponding to speed, magnitude, or some other parameter
• Throwing an onscreen switch supplies a pop feeling
