Haptic Testing Overview

Haptic testing is a fundamental component in the development of immersive haptic experiences. Interhaptics provides multiple methods for testing haptic effects across various platforms and devices, allowing developers to rapidly iterate and refine their haptic designs before final implementation.

Testing Environments

Haptic Composer Testing

Test your haptic designs directly within the Haptic Composer application:

*Note: It is currently not possible to test HD haptics effects on DualSense controllers on PC.

Game Engine Testing

Test haptic implementations by playing your scene or building your application:

  • GameInput/Xinput devices
  • Razer Sensa HD Haptics
  • Meta Quest devices
  • OpenXR compatible devices

Documentation Sections

Interhaptics Player (iOS/Android)

Learn how to use the Interhaptics Player mobile application to test your haptic designs on iOS and Android devices. This tool allows designers to experience and evaluate their haptic effects on mobile platforms before implementation in a final product.

PlayStation DualSense™ HD Haptics

Discover the testing capabilities for PlayStation DualSense controllers, including both HD haptics and adaptive triggers functionality. This section covers specific testing methodologies for PlayStation's advanced haptic feedback system.

Razer Sensa HD Haptics Devices

Explore how to test haptic effects on Razer Sensa HD haptic devices, including the Kraken V3 Hypersense Developer Kit and other Razer peripherals that support high-definition haptic feedback.

Benefits of Haptic Testing

  • Rapid Iteration: Quickly test and refine haptic designs without lengthy development cycles
  • Cross-Platform Verification: Ensure consistent haptic experiences across different devices
  • Quality Assurance: Identify and address issues before releasing to end-users
  • Experiential Evaluation: Assess the subjective quality and impact of haptic effects

By utilizing Interhaptics' testing tools, developers can ensure that their haptic implementations deliver the intended sensory experience across all supported platforms and devices.
