Location-Based Output Adaptation for Enhanced Actuator Performance using Frequency Sweep Analysis

Abstract: This paper presents a methodology for enhancing actuator performance in older devices or retrofitting devices with haptic feedback actuators. The approach is versatile, accommodating various actuator and mounting positions. Through a frequency sweep analysis, the system's characteristics are captured, enabling the creation of location-specific transfer functions to accurately transform input signals into command signals for a precise output at the target location. This method offers fast and simple collection of the system properties and generation of location-specific signals.
