The application includes an apparatus connectable with a portable electronic and/or consumer electronics device that provides haptic information and/or feedback to a user of the portable electronic device. The apparatus may include one or more acousto-haptic transducers that provide at least one of audio and haptic output to a user of the portable electronic device. Systems and methods also provide a vibrating membrane or waveguide that transfers haptic or vibrational feedback to a user that touches the membrane using, for example, their finger. The membrane may be transparent, allowing the membrane to be overlaid over a touch screen, keypad, and/or keyboard to provide haptic feedback to a user as the user types on the touch screen. In this way, a user can continue to view the touch screen or display of a media device while experiencing haptic sensations from the vibrating membrane.
