Claim Text:
1. A method of producing a haptic sensation, comprising: using a plurality of acoustic transducers at a first cellular communication device to determine a first gesture by an object moving within a three-dimensional space in front of a display on the first cellular communication device, wherein the three-dimensional space is segmented into a plurality of spatial levels spanning a range of distances from the display along a first axis, each spatial level including pixel volumes sized according to a resolution capability of the acoustic transducers, wherein the pixel volumes are configured to provide resolution to power levels for determining the first gesture; sending a first haptic signal from the first cellular communication device to a second cellular communication device; and actuating at least one actuator at the second cellular communication device according to the first haptic signal to produce a haptic sensation at the second cellular communication device.
