Patent ID: 8519948

Claim:
A method, comprising: receiving from a sensor a signal that is associated with an active actuator; receiving from the sensor a signal that is associated with a resistive actuator, wherein the resistive actuator is separate and different from the active actuator; filtering the signal associated with the active actuator using a first filter to produce a first filtered signal based on a first requirement of the active actuator, wherein the first filter is associated with the active actuator; filtering the signal associated with the resistive actuator using a second filter to produce a second filtered signal based on a second requirement of the resistive actuator, wherein the first requirement is different than the second requirement, the second filter is associated with the resistive actuator, and the first filter filters differently than the second filter based on the first and second requirements; generating a first haptic feedback signal based on the first filtered signal, wherein the first haptic feedback signal is generated prior to outputting a first haptic feedback, and wherein the first haptic feedback signal causes the first haptic feedback to be output based on the first requirement of the active actuator; generating a second haptic feedback signal based on the second filtered signal, wherein the second haptic feedback signal is generated prior to outputting a second haptic feedback, and wherein the second haptic feedback signal causes the second haptic feedback to be output based on the second requirement of the resistive actuator; outputting, by the active actuator, the first haptic feedback based on the first haptic feedback signal; and outputting, by the resistive actuator, the second haptic feedback based on the second haptic feedback signal.
