Problems solved by technology

But these devices have many problems with touch devices themselves, as the feedback they generate can easily become annoying and is often turned off
Also, since the whole device vibrates, device feedback can cause a loss of input accuracy and a tight grip on the handheld

Embodiment Construction

[0040] The present application describes apparatus and methods of construction suitable for generating more interactive touch screen devices capable of producing a more interactive user experience than just conventional touch screen displays. Thus the use of a flexible membrane for connecting the display and the cover or housing, as described below in the embodiments of the application, enables the device to be configured to greatly enhance the user experience. The construction of such a flexible membrane and some examples of its implementation in devices are described in more detail below.

[0041] figure 2 A schematic block diagram of an exemplary electronic device 10 or apparatus on which embodiments of the present application may be implemented is disclosed. The electronic device 10 is configured to provide an improved user interface or localized tactile feedback and interaction.

[0042]In some embodiments, the electronic device 10 is a mobile terminal, mobile phone or...

Abstract

An apparatus comprising a first part configured to form at least part of the case of the apparatus, a second part configured to form at least part of the display for the apparatus, and a flexible membrane attached at a first area of contact to the first part and at a second area of contact to the second part and furthermore configured to connect the first part to second part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to devices for providing tactile feedback. The invention further relates to, but is not limited to, means for providing haptic feedback for use in mobile devices. Background technique [0002] Many portable devices, such as mobile phones, are equipped with displays, such as glass or plastic display windows, for providing information to the user. Furthermore, such display windows are now commonly used as touch-sensitive inputs. The use of touch-sensitive inputs with a display is advantageous over mechanical keypads in that the display can be configured to display a range of different inputs depending on the mode used to operate the device. For example, in a first mode of operation the display can be enabled to enter a telephone number by displaying a simple numeric keypad arrangement and in a second mode can be used to enable the display to be used by displaying an alphanumeric arrangement (such as an analog Qwerty keyboa...
