Abstract
A haptic device may allow a user to explore the tactile sensations associated with information being displayed on a display. This methodology can be referred to as a “hold-and-feel” mode. The user may first perform a gesture to inform the device to hold the display stationary, in order to explore the information, instead of scrolling or panning the information on the display. For example, to enter the “hold-and-feel” mode, a user may press one finger on the side of the screen to lock the information content with respect to the screen so that the display contents are no longer moved as the user slides another finger over the screen. In a haptic device that supports tactile sensory stimulation, this “hold-and-feel” mode allows the user to feel one or more objects or elements (e.g., a link or image) on the screen, for example, as variations of surface texture.
