Vehicle computing system to provide feedback
A vehicle computing system may provide feedback in a vehicle, using a vehicle processor of the vehicle. A touch display may display windows with different vibrations to provide the feedback. A vibration may vary in relation to data.
1. A method performed by a vehicle computing system, the method comprising:
displaying, by a flexible multi-touch display electrically coupled to a processor and having embedded in a same plane an ultrasound transducer that generates touch sensations to a user over air, a pop-up window, wherein the pop-up window provides a vibration on touch, wherein the vibration increases over time and the flexible multi-touch display detects at least two touches simultaneously;
controlling, by a controller in communication with the ultrasound transducer, ultrasound projected over air to the user by the ultrasound transducer to produce tactile virtual resistance via substantially circular ultrasound using multiple focal points in a zone for the pop-up window when moving into obstacles or boundaries on the flexible multi-touch display, wherein an intensity of the virtual resistance is dependent on location determined by a global positioning system (GPS) device and wherein predicted finger input is detected by an ultrasound detector electrically coupled to the controller; and
displaying, by the flexible multi-touch display, a detailed list of items to navigate by touch gesture for scrolling through the list of items, wherein hitting a threshold level or end point causes an ultrasound tactile feedback, and wherein for scrolling momentum, an ultrasound pattern provides higher intensity initially and then less intensity as momentum increases.

wherein the flexible multi-touch display is further configured to display a detailed list of items to navigate by touch gesture for scrolling through the list of items, wherein hitting a threshold level or end point causes an ultrasound tactile feedback, and wherein for scrolling momentum, an ultrasound pattern provides higher intensity initially and then less intensity as momentum increases.
