Haptic technology wheel to simulate forces found when cornering a real vehicle. In 2007, Novint released the Falcon, the first consumer 3D touch device with high resolution three-dimensional force feedback; this allowed the haptic simulation of objects, textures, recoil, momentum, and the physical presence of objects in games. Non-contact, or mid-air, haptic technology utilizes the sense of touch without physical contact of a device. This type of feedback involves interactions with a system that are in a 3D space around the user. Thus, the user is able to perform actions on a system in the absence of holding a physical input device.
Haptic technology flight simulators for pilot training. It is very critical to exert proper force magnitude to the user. It requires considering human force sensitivity. Haptic feedback is commonly used in arcade games, especially racing video games. In 1976, Sega's motorbike game "Moto-Cross", also known as "Fonz", was the first game to use haptic feedback which caused the handlebars to vibrate during a collision with another vehicle. Tatsumi's "TX-1" introduced force feedback to car driving games in 1983. The game "Earthshaker!" was the first pinball machine with haptic feedback in 1989. Simple haptic devices are common in the form of game controllers,
