Abstract

A method for managing movement includes determining a current location of a subject in a monitoring area, comparing the current location to a risk area location in the monitoring area, determining a likelihood of injury based on a result of the comparison, and generating control information based on the likelihood of injury to the subject. The control information may control activation of a haptic effect in a device worn or carried by the subject. The haptic effect may correspond to at least one stimulus that notifies the subject of the potential risk area.
