Abstract
A system for adjusting tactile cues includes a controller having an axis and a cross-axis; an axis tactile cue generated in response to the position of the controller along the axis; a position scaling unit scaling a cross-axis controller position to generate a scaled cross-axis controller position; a force scaling unit scaling a cross-axis controller force to generate a scaled cross-axis controller force; a combiner combining the scaled cross-axis controller position and the scaled cross-axis controller force to generate an adjustment factor; and an adjuster adjusting the axis tactile cue in response to the adjustment factor to generate an adjusted axis tactile cue.
