Abstract

The disclosure relates to technology for haptic stimulation. A haptic stimulation device comprises a set of haptic stimulation elements. Each haptic stimulation element comprises a transducer configured to generate a pressure wave and an enclosure coupled to the transducer thereby forming a cavity bounded by the enclosure and the transducer. The haptic stimulation device comprises a controller configured to drive the transducers to generate a haptic stimulation pattern based on pressure waves in the cavities.
