Haptic Feedback Module for UI Buttons

What is it?

The haptic feedback module is a compact device that delivers a tactile response to a user when they interact with a user interface element, such as pressing a button or scrolling on a touch screen. Operating the module is straightforward; all that is required is to connect the VDD and GND pins, and the module will be ready to use. Upon detecting a falling edge on the EN pin, the vibration motor will activate for a brief moment. By connecting the EN pin to a button or multiple buttons, the user can trigger the vibration motor by pressing the buttons, resulting in a satisfying tactile feedback response. Additionally, the module is equipped with a 3mm mounting hole that allows it to be secured to an enclosure using an M3 screw, thereby enhancing its vibrational effects.

In the DIY market, a haptic module like this can be used in a variety of applications, such as:

Gaming: DIY game controllers can benefit from this haptic feedback module that provides a subtle vibration feedback to the user when they press a button. This can enhance the user's gaming experience and make the gameplay feel more realistic.

Home automation: This haptic feedback module can be used in DIY smart home systems to provide feedback when a user activates a function, such as turning on the lights or adjusting the temperature.

Wearables: DIY wearable devices such as smartwatches or fitness trackers can benefit from this haptic feedback module that provide a tactile response to user inputs. This can help users navigate the device's interface more easily without having to look at the screen.

Accessibility: This haptic feedback module can be used in DIY accessibility devices, such as assistive technology for individuals with visual impairments. The tactile feedback can provide a way for users to interact with devices that they might not be able to otherwise.

Overall, this haptic feedback module that vibrates momentarily is a simple and effective way to add tactile feedback to DIY projects in a variety of markets.
