Recently, at the spring conference of Huawei's whole-house intelligence and whole-scene new products, Huawei comprehensively upgraded its "1+2+N" whole-house intelligence solution from the perspectives of interaction, host, and scene, and successfully applied haptic feedback technology to the interaction of the intelligent center control screen, stepping out of the linear motor circle, leading the interaction revolution, and opening up a new wave of whole-house intelligence. The new wave of whole-house smart.
Intelligent center control screen with extraordinary vibration feedback
After Huawei's conference, the most common phrase in the industry is: smart home is moving from single product to whole-house intelligence. From the conference, you can learn that the smart center control screen and smart panel that carries the whole-house home appliance control is the interaction focus of Huawei's "1+2+N" whole-house smart solution. This upgrade, Huawei has brought 6.6-inch and 10.1-inch center control screen, from scene switching to interface switching, to achieve a space and a screen, equipment can be controlled. Huawei brings haptic feedback technology into it this time, and the new application technology brings more possibilities for interaction.
Huawei's intelligent center control screen is a full touch screen that supports 10-point touch control, with each touch point giving vibration feedback in a punctual and correct manner. It is unique in that it replaces the traditional linear motor with a simple haptic feedback actuator (also known as a piezoelectric motor), which realizes the addition of vibration feedback effects between presses for a more realistic feel. From the device side to eliminate the discomfort of the elderly use of smart home equipment, so that the development of science and technology to bring the convenience of no one, anytime, anywhere, efficient management of whole-house home appliances really landed on the ground to become a reality.
Haptic feedback actuator: perception of external forces and vibration feedback
Unlike Huawei's technological revolution, most smart terminals and smart devices on the market still use linear motors to simulate the touch of the keys. For example, the hidden button is responsible for sensing external force, and the X-axis linear motor simulates the touch of the button to realize vibration feedback.
The haptic feedback actuator selected by Huawei does have an "edge" over other components: it can realize two functions: sensing external force and simulating the touch of a key. The use of the same component to realize two functions, compared with two or more components of the linkage, which involves the arrangement and combination of components, positional distribution, algorithmic technology, it should be more simple, this advantage will be an important basis for the haptic feedback actuator towards a larger market.
More advantages of haptic feedback actuator
Multi-dimensionality
Haptic feedback actuator can realize different vibration feedback effects according to different application scenarios, adapting to the multidimensional demand of multi-level, multi-switching and multi-synchronization of interactive interface.
Multi-touch feedback
The multi-touch control of Huawei's intelligent center control screen is a proof in action that the haptic feedback actuator can realize the vibration feedback function over a large area instead of just recognizing a single point of vibration feedback.
Software definability
The strength and effect of haptic feedback can be customized through software to adapt to the feedback needs of different terminals and devices.
Good feedback performance
Good feedback performance and controllability, vibration amplitude, vibration frequency can be freely changed by pulse control to realize different vibration patterns.
Slim and easy to install
The size of the product is as small as millimeters, and the standard product has a variety of thicknesses ranging from 0.5 to 1mm, which makes it easy to install.
Haptic feedback actuator
Haptic feedback actuator independently developed by AUDIOWELL is a kind of operation interaction actuator, the product belongs to the category of piezoelectric conversion element, with a wide range of applications, it can be used for the display of the virtual key touch panel, as well as the interaction between the virtual and the real. In the smart home, not only the smart center control panel applies to the haptic feedback actuator, but also the control panel of electromagnetic stove, range hood, washing machine and other home appliances can apply the product solution. In addition, the product can also be applied to AR and smart phones, smart wearable and so on.
Haptic feedback actuators utilize the positive and negative piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric ceramics to generate mechanical deformation when a driving voltage is applied to it, thus causing vibration. It consists of piezoelectric ceramics and metal substrate, the product performance is stable, the size is small and thin, to meet the requirements of thin installation. It is also characterized by low power consumption, large amplitude, fast response speed and long service life.
