Haptic Technology To Gain Traction Across Various Segments For Smarter Devices

(MENAFN- Straits Research) Haptic, being a 'sense of touch' technology, is expected to gain prominence in the near future as it makes human and computer interaction easier and offers enhanced touch and detailed information regarding an object in the real world. The prolific use of haptic technology in automobile, home appliances, education, and gaming sectors is expected to create new opportunities for the global haptic technology market. For instance, Apple develops devices with a tactile engine that provides tactile sensation in the form of vibration to consumers of Apple devices such as iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks. Tactile Engine is Apple's brand name for its haptic feedback mechanism.
The implementation of 3D touchscreens with haptic feedback in self-service kiosks is expected to be a key trend influencing market growth.
