Abstract: The present invention provides a haptics control system that may include a driver to generate a continuous drive signal and to output the drive signal to a mechanical system on an electrical signal line, wherein the continuous drive signal causes the mechanical system to vibrate to produce a haptic effect. The haptics control system may further include a monitor, coupled to the electrical signal line, to capture a Back Electromotive Force (BEMF) signal generated by the mechanical system in the electrical signal line, to measure a BEMF signals attribute, and to transmit an adjustment signal to the driver based on the BEMF signals attribute. The driver is further configured to adjust the continuous drive signal according to the adjustment signal.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a user interface processing system for a device that may include at least one sensor, at least one output device, and a controller. The controller may include a memory, which may store instructional information, and a processor. The processor may be configured to receive sensor data from the at least one sensor and to interpret sensor data according to the instructional information. The processor may also generate a user interface feedback command and transmit the command to the at least one output device. Furthermore, the processor may report the sensor data to a host system of the device. By processing the sensor data and generating a corresponding feedback response, for example a haptic response, without the need for host system processing, the user interface controller may decrease latency in providing the feedback response to the user.
