Nokia, the world’s largest mobile handset maker, has licensed the VibeTonz from haptics developer Immersion, entering into a long-term worldwide agreement which will let Nokia put some shake, rattle, and rumble into its phones. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“This license with Nokia supports the potential for very widespread use of our VibeTonz System—and the VibeTonz System supports the potential for a much fuller, more multisensory experience for users,” said Immersion CEO Victor Viegas. “With VibeTonz technology, Nokia can very purposefully access the sense of touch and add value throughout the mobile device.”
