What is a Tactile Transducer?
• It is an electro-mechanical device that shakes. It is very similar to a loudspeaker woofer driver minus the cone. It is your basic physics damped mass on a spring model driven by an oscillating force (the voice coil). You hook tactile transducers up to an audio amplifier and mount them to a solid object. They can operate at higher frequencies but people typically cross them over at subwoofer frequencies and use them to reproduce bass. The buzz (; is that they vibrate and some people like that.
