#X text 20 41 "Haptic" means relating to the sense of touch. Haptic
feedback relates to the sense of touch at the skin level \, and the
feeling of forces in the muscles and joints. Vibrations stimulate the
sense of touch while various forces stimulate the muscles.;
#X text 20 118 There are many haptic devices available \, from a US$35
Logitech iFeel mouse \, to the massive \, extremely expensive haptic
devices used for remote control surgery. Immersion \, Inc. has almost
a monopoly on this technology due to a number of patents. These objects
all work with Immersion technology \, generally known as "TouchSense".

#X text 21 207 Numerous companies produce haptic game controllers:
mice \, joysticks \, gamepads \, steering wheels. These objects work
with game controllers.;

#X text 107 266 Control the pulses and vibrations of a TouchSense (aka
iFeel) mouse;
#X text 110 319 Set the overall gain for all force effects;
#X text 110 359 Apply forces to automatically center the controller
;
#X text 111 407 Apply a spring force in a specified direction;
#X text 111 445 Apply friction to the movement of the controller. Also
known as damping.;
#X text 111 492 Periodic effects are forces controlled by waveforms
of various shape \, strength \, and frequency;
#X text 112 542 Apply a constant force in a specified direction;
