London, 27 October 2015: Technavio, the independent tech-focused global research firm, has published a report on the haptic technology market for mobile devices in the US 2015-2019, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 39.1% during the period of 2014-2019.
With advances in technology, the OEMs and software application developers are moving forward to use haptic technology in mobile devices for more than basic touch feedback or other basic UI functions. OEMs are integrating multiple sensory inputs into their mobile devices to create an intuitive experience for their users while software developers are developing next-generation tactile-based applications that could be run on those devices.
“The evolution of next-generation actuator technologies such as electrostatic actuators, dielectric EAPAs, EMP actuators, and piezoceramic actuators are enabling vendors to improve the touch of a screen to emulate different sense of touch,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of Technavio.
“Vendors have come up with electrostatic-based haptic feedback where the vibration is felt only at the place where the user’s finger taps the screen.”
