from http://thenextweb.com:
>>Sheehan showed me a demo application on his Nexus S that allowed for
in-app highlighting via haptics. For instance, if you have an email
inbox that’s overloaded, a developer could tie in with the Immersion SDK
to have an email app that produces a vibration when an important
contact’s email scrolls past on your screen. The demo that I used had
light vibration for the scrolling movement, but it ramped up in
intensity as I got closer to the highlighted contact’s message.
It’s one of those ah-hah moments where things just made sense. Why
weren’t we getting this sort of touch-intensive feedback already?
The next demo was of something that could easily be a Facebook photo
gallery. While flipping through pictures, I would feel increasing levels
of feedback based upon how many comments a picture had. No comments? No
vibration. Numerous? A quick buzz told me that something was going on,
and I should tap the picture to bring up the comments display.
