Some applications of Immersion’s TouchSense solutions in commercial devices include:
Desktop Phone
As voice and data services converge, desk phones have expanded from numeric touch pads to include a richer user paradigm through touchscreens, delivering a much greater set of functionality in a simpler user interface. Adding haptic feedback effects to touch devices is a natural progression and transforms this new UI into an engaging and intuitive experience.

Adding haptic feedback transforms this new UI into an engaging confident experience.

POS
Touchscreen interfaces on point of sale devices and kiosks are found seemingly everywhere – in airports, grocery stores and ATM machines. While consumers are used to touching a piece of glass to respond to various questions about flight numbers and dollar amounts, adding haptic feedback to these devices offers unmistakable confirmation especially in a high traffic or noisy environment that cause audio or visual distractions. Tactile feedback can increase user satisfaction, which leads to fewer walkaways and more successful transactions
