Abstract

A dynamic tactile interface includes a tactile layer including an attachment surface, a peripheral region, and a deformable region adjacent the peripheral region, the deformable region operable between a retracted setting and an expanded setting; a substrate coupled to the attachment surface at the peripheral region and defining a fluid conduit and a fluid channel fluidly coupled to the fluid conduit, the fluid conduit adjacent the deformable region; a first magnet coupled to the substrate proximal the deformable region; and a second magnet coupled to the tactile layer at the deformable region and magnetically coupled to the first magnet, the first magnet and the second magnet cooperating to yield a nonlinear displacement of the deformable region in the expanded setting toward the substrate in response to a force applied to the tactile surface at the deformable region.
