Game developer Lionhead Studios has incorporated a library of tactile sensations into its video game Black & White, due for release this spring by Electronic Arts. The haptics are provided by Immersion Corp.‘s TouchSense technology. Gamers using a TouchSense-enabled mouse will be able to, for example, feel a fish nibbling at their fingers as they feed them, or their own heartbeats quickening.
