Abstract

Haptic response is controlled in a device having a touch sensor, a force sensor, and a haptic response actuator operably coupled to a touch surface. A user touch to the touch surface is detected by the touch sensor. A force applied to the touch surface is sensed by the detected user touch. Electrical power supplied to the haptic response actuator is adjusted based at least in part on the sensed force satisfying a haptic condition. The haptic response to the touch surface is actuated based at least in part on satisfaction of the haptic condition and the supply of the adjusted electrical power to the haptic response actuator.
