IHPT Haptic Feedback Actuators with Immersion Licenses

Vishay IHPT solenoid-based haptic actuators feature immersion corporation licenses with five devices offering additional sizes and force levels. Vishay custom magnetics actuators provide 12 V operation for LCDs, touchscreens, touch switches, and button control panels for human-machine interfaces (HMI) in automotive and commercial applications. By eliminating the need for additional housing and high-voltage supplies, the IHPT series can be implemented at a lower cost than competing technologies, including linear resonant, linear wideband, eccentric rotating mass, and piezo actuators, while reducing component height and delivering higher force density. By bundling the actuators with immersion licenses, the design-in process is streamlined and costs are lowered further by eliminating the need to purchase a separate license to implement sophisticated haptic effects.
