Yup. this is it (the link starts at around 28 seconds): And this is the post: https://www.neogaf.com/threads/how-does-hd-rumble-work.1336582/#post-228858910 Quote Well normal rumble is just a motor which spins, creating a vibration. Basically. HD rumble uses linear actuators, similar to apple's "Taptic engine" which is what they use for the Force Touch stuff in the new iPhones and Apple Watch. I BELIEVE that these are different in that they are more like weighted electro magnets, rather than a simple spinning motor. This means you can create a much, much more subtle variety of sensations compared to a rumble motor which is pretty much just a spinning motor - all they can really do is produce differing speeds of vibration. I'm not an expert myself but I'm sure others on here can give you more of a technical explanation of how the actuators actually work.

At any moment now, Filip is going to post a video saying "Years ago I decided to do a social experiment starting with the tweet about plagiarism. I wanted to see how far I could go in this industry just copying/pasting things. Things spiraled out of control as I gained a following and got hired by IGN. I'm extremely sorry for all the trouble I've caused." Now you all saw me post this. If in a few days he gains wind of this post and comes out with this excuse we got him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
