Haptic Performance Overview

Haptic Performance testing is a critical component in evaluating the quality and effectiveness of haptic technology across different devices. This documentation section provides benchmark results and detailed analyses of how the Interhaptics SDK performs on various supported hardware platforms.

Key Testing Metrics​

  • Frequency Sweep: Identifies how devices respond to varying input frequencies
  • Amplitude Linearity: Measures how consistently devices respond to different levels of input
  • Transient Response: Evaluates the performance of short-lived haptic effects like shocks
  • Transient Vibration Mixing: Tests how well devices handle simultaneous transients and vibrations
