NVIDIA wants AI to control haptic effects within games

NVIDIA is struggling hard to improve game effects. Every year, different companies try to promote more meaningful and engaging experiences within games, as in the case of DualSense, the joystick for Playstation 5, which brought new advances by introducing its haptic feedback mechanics and innovated the interaction between players and the game.

However, many of these solutions have pre-programmed haptic effects. According to a group of researchers at NVIDIA, it is possible to revolutionize the haptic experience through machine learning. That’s why, in a recently published patent filed back in September 2019, they unveiled an intelligent algorithm that can learn to recognize certain features and generate a corresponding haptic response on any hardware it’s connected to.

According to the website, the technology can be applied to a variety of hardware and software. “This patent provides a control interface that intelligently induces haptic effects, in particular by using machine learning to recognize specific features in content and then inducing effects for those features.”

Obviously, the joystick interface needs to be trained before these actions can be performed autonomously. Regardless of the final form of this new technology, there is no doubt that NVIDIA is investing heavily in the artificial intelligence market, which includes its first CPU called Grace.
