Abstract

A haptic theme system is provided that can create a haptic theme, where a haptic theme is an installable package that includes one or more haptic effects, and a mapping of the one or more haptic effects to one or more user interface ('UI') events of a device. The haptic theme can be installed on the device, and the device can then dynamically load and play a haptic theme in real-time. The haptic theme system can display one or more haptic themes within a user interface. Upon receiving a selection, the haptic theme system can generate haptic feedback based on the haptic effect that is mapped to a received user interface event within the mapping.
