Abstract
A method is presented for providing haptic feedback through a touch-sensitive input device configured to provide input to a touch-sensitive computing device. The method comprises determining a haptic perception factor based on a set of computing device inputs received from sensors of the touch-sensitive computing device, the computing device inputs including at least a posture of the touch-sensitive computing device. A haptic response profile is determined based on the haptic perception factor. Haptic devices of the touch-sensitive input device are actuated based on the determined haptic response profile. Responsive to determining a change in the haptic perception factor based on a change in the posture of the touch-sensitive computing device the haptic response profile is then adjusted based on the changed haptic perception factor. The haptic devices of the touch-sensitive input device are then actuated based on the adjusted haptic response profile.
