Embodiment 1

[0106] Embodiment 1 is a computer-implemented method of encoding tactile input for transmission, the method being executed on a computer system having one or more physical processors programmed with computer program instructions running on a When executed, the one or more physical processors cause the computer system to perform the method, the method comprising:

[0107] accessing a master haptic library that stores an association between a content identifier and a designed haptic effect, the designed haptic effect comprising a first haptic tile template and a second haptic tile template;

[0108] Receiving haptic effect information;

[0109] based on the haptic effect information, generating a first haptic tile from the master haptic library according to the first haptic tile template;

[0110] appending a first time stamp to said first haptic block based on said haptic effect information;

[0111] based on the haptic effect information, generating a second haptic tile from...

Embodiment 2

[0115] Embodiment 2 is the method as described in Embodiment 1, further comprising encapsulating a session identifier into the haptic data unit, the session identifier representing a complete haptic effect including the first haptic block and the second haptic block .

Embodiment 3

[0116] Embodiment 3 is the method as described in Embodiment 2, further comprising encapsulating an access identifier into the haptic data unit associated with the session identifier, the access identifier representing a session selected to receive the complete haptic effect. Multiple clients.

Abstract

The invention relates to systems, devices, and methods for streaming haptic effects. Systems, devices, and methods for streaming haptic effects are provided. Devices and methods are provided to createa system for receiving and encoding haptic effects according to a master haptics library. The encoded haptic effects are transmitted to a server system for distribution to client haptic devices. Theclient haptic devices include device specific haptic libraries for decoding the received haptic effects according to the capabilities of the respective devices.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments herein relate to systems, devices, and methods for streaming haptic effects. In particular, embodiments herein provide techniques for authoring, encoding, streaming, decoding, and playback of haptic effects from a haptic effect author to one or more recipient client haptic devices. Background technique [0002] Haptic effects alone or in combination with traditional media formats, including audiovisual formats, provide an enhanced user experience. The haptic effect stream can be combined with the audiovisual stream to enhance the user experience of the streaming media, whether the streaming media is live streaming or pre-recorded streaming media. The client haptic device includes one or more haptic actuators to deliver the haptic effects of the haptic effect stream to the user. However, different models of client haptic devices may include different sets of actuators and thus have different output capabilities. Output capabilities may va...
