Abstract

A breath pacing apparatus and a method for pacing a respiration of a person include a haptic output unit with a variable haptically perceivable feature. The haptic output unit is configured to change the haptically perceivable feature periodically according to a sequence of desired respiration cycles, where a characteristic of the change of the haptically perceivable feature is related to a length of the respiration cycles in the sequence of desired respiration cycles.
