Wired News heeft een artikeltje gepost over de nieuwe Logitech Wingman Force Feedback mouse met 'tactile feedback':
The primary market for the Logitech's Wingman Force Feedback Mouse, which is due to ship in December, will be gaming. Tactile feedback has been used in joysticks that reflect inertial forces experienced in jet flight or driving simulations.[...] But Logitech and Immersion want to carry the concept to other mouse-intensive applications. From Web surfing to graphic design and business applications, the company thinks tactile feedback can be tied to productivity enhancement.
Logitech envisions users feeling the cursor interact with points, lines, and curves as they draw a 2-D image in a design program. Contours, surfaces, textures, and edges could provide similar sensations in 3-D rendering.
