A suspension component for coupling a touch panel to a substrate in a haptic touch panel assembly, at least a portion of the touch panel being spaced from the substrate in an axial direction, the suspension component comprising: a touch panel interface adapted for attachment to the touch panel along a first axis (z) that extends through the touch panel interface in the axial direction; a substrate interface adapted for attachment to the substrate; and at least one flexible connector extending between and connecting a first end at the touch panel interface and a second end at the substrate interface, the first and second ends being spaced apart along a second axis (x) in a direction transverse to the axial direction, wherein each flexible connector includes a first axial sidewall extending from the first end, a second axial sidewall spaced apart from the first axial sidewall along the second axis by a mobility gap, and a first concave section connecting the first axial side wall to the second axial side wall; and wherein movement of the touch panel interface relative to the substrate interface is permitted with three or more degrees of freedom, including a translational degree of freedom in the direction of the first axis and a translational degree of freedom in the direction of the second axis, the suspension component being characterised in that the substrate interface is configured to interface with the substrate at locations that are spaced apart along the second axis and on opposite sides of the first axis and in that the three or more degrees of freedom further include rotational degree of freedom about a third axis (y) that intersects the first axis and is perpendicular to both the first and second axes. a touch panel interface adapted for attachment to the touch panel along a first axis (z) that extends through the touch panel interface in the axial direction; a substrate interface adapted for attachment to the substrate; and at least one flexible connector extending between and connecting a first end at the touch panel interface and a second end at the substrate interface, the first and second ends being spaced apart along a second axis (x) in a direction transverse to the axial direction, wherein each flexible connector includes a first axial sidewall extending from the first end, a second axial sidewall spaced apart from the first axial sidewall along the second axis by a mobility gap, and a first concave section connecting the first axial side wall to the second axial side wall; and wherein movement of the touch panel interface relative to the substrate interface is permitted with three or more degrees of freedom, including a translational degree of freedom in the direction of the first axis and a translational degree of freedom in the direction of the second axis, the suspension component being characterised in that the substrate interface is configured to interface with the substrate at locations that are spaced apart along the second axis and on opposite sides of the first axis and in that the three or more degrees of freedom further include rotational degree of freedom about a third axis (y) that intersects the first axis and is perpendicular to both the first and second axes.
