Summary:PURPOSE: A method and device for haptic flex gestures are provided to perform signal communications with a sensor and a haptic device and to offer haptic confirmation of a flex gesture by triggering the haptic device and application actions related to the flex gesture. CONSTITUTION: A user interface (UI) includes a flexible surface, and a sensor (156) detects a flex gesture applied to the flexible surface. A haptic device generates haptic effects in response to the flex gesture, and a controller (170) performs signal communications with the sensor and the haptic device. The controller triggers the haptic device and provides haptic confirmation of the flex gesture by triggering application actions related to the flex gesture.
