Abstract: Described embodiments include an apparatus and a method. In an apparatus, a touch tracking circuit detects a segment of a path defined by a user contact point moving across a touch sensitive display. A motion analysis circuit determines a parameter descriptive of a motion of the user contact point during its movement across the detected segment of the path (hereafter "motion parameter"). A filter predicts in response to the motion parameter a next contiguous segment of the path defined by the user-contact point moving across the touch sensitive display. A compensation circuit initiates a display by the touch sensitive display of the detected segment of the path and the predicted next segment of the path. An updating circuit initiates an update of the detected segment of the path and the predicted next contiguous segment of the path as the user contact point moves across the touch sensitive display.

The actuator-generator is further coupled to the elastically deformable component such that mechanical actuation of the actuator-generator via a release of tension in the elastically deformable component causes a generation of electrical energy by the actuator-generator.
