Quanta Computer was granted 1 patent in 1 category: Hardware (1).
The patent covers an active force feedback button mechanism designed for gaming joysticks. This Hardware technology employs a motor-driven rotary system to push buttons back against the user's input, enabling programmable tactile resistance that enhances the physical sensation during gameplay.
The single Hardware patent describes a button mechanism that replaces conventional spring returns with an active motor system capable of generating variable resistance. When a player presses a button, the motor applies opposing force that can be adjusted dynamically based on what's happening in the game. This approach allows the joystick to simulate context-specific sensations, such as the increasing tension of pulling a firearm trigger or the pressure needed to depress an accelerator pedal. The motor-driven design transforms what would normally be a static mechanical response into a programmable haptic experience that changes throughout gameplay.
