Claim 0:
1. A method for actuating a haptic feedback component in a stylus while the stylus crosses a gap between a first display and a second display of a computing device, the method comprising:
detecting one or more haptic triggering criteria;
at least on condition of detecting the one or more haptic triggering criteria, actuating the haptic feedback component to produce haptic output;
using a width of the gap between the first display and the second display, a stylus velocity, and a stylus direction, calculating a crossing time for a tip of the stylus to cross the gap;
at a first time after actuating the haptic feedback component, determining that the tip of the stylus crosses an inside edge of the first display or the second display; and
at least on condition of determining that the tip of the stylus crosses the inside edge of the first display or the second display, continuing to actuate the haptic feedback component for the crossing time.
