Abstract

A touchpad assembly, including an actuator device that provides motion in a first direction; a first structural element coupled to the actuator device; a second structural element coupled to the first structural element; wherein the first structural element, in response to the motion in the first direction provided by the actuator device, exerts a first rotational force in a first rotational direction, wherein the second structural element, in response to the first rotational force by the first structural element, exerts a second rotational force in a second rotational direction opposite to the first rotational direction, wherein the first rotational force and the second rotational force provide a rotational vibration of the touchpad assembly.
