Abstract:
A tactile feedback device includes a vibrating device and a touch sensor. The vibrating device comprises a flexible diaphragm and a film which deforms in response to the application of electrical energy thereto, the film being attached to the flexible diaphragm at two spaced locations with a major surface of the film facing a major surface of the flexible diaphragm. The vibrating device further includes a spacer located between the two spaced locations and ensuring that the major surface of the flexible diaphragm is spaced from the major surface of the film. The touch sensor is coupled to the diaphragm and generates an output signal in response to a touch operation. Means are provided to apply electrical energy to the film in response to the output signal.
