Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating a haptic signal with auditory saliency estimation from an audio signal is disclosed. The method includes detecting audio characteristic information of a bass component and audio characteristic information of a treble component from a received audio signal, estimating auditory saliency with respect to the audio signal based on the two types of audio characteristic information, and calculating a tactile signal based on the auditory saliency.
