Abstract

Systems and methods for generating haptic effects associated with transitions in audio signals are disclosed. One disclosed system for outputting haptic effects includes a processor configured to: receive a signal (402); determine a haptic effect based in part on the signal (404); output a haptic signal associated with the haptic effect (406); an audio output device configured to receive the signal and output an audible effect (408); and a haptic output device in communication with the processor and coupled to the touch surface, the haptic output device configured to receive the haptic signal and output the haptic effect.
