Abstract

A method for providing haptic feedback. Haptic feedback may be provided to a user through a touch-sensitive input device configured to provide input to a touch-sensitive computing device. The method includes determining a haptic perception factor based at least in part on one or more of a set of input device inputs received from sensors of the touch-sensitive input device and a set of computing device inputs received from sensors of the touch-sensitive computing device. A haptic response profile is determined based at least in part on the haptic perception factor. Haptic devices of the touch-sensitive input device are then actuated based at least in part on the determined haptic response profile.
