TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TITAN Haptics, an award-winning haptics startup, today announces its first haptic motor under the TITAN Haptics brand called TacHammer DRAKE; a new, compact, wideband haptic motor the size of a pill capsule.
Built on the Second Generation of Linear Magnetic Ram (LMR) suspension technology, TITAN Haptics’ compact DRAKE motor offers a huge boost in power density, an increase of 320% compared to its predecessor the Carlton. It also boasts 7% greater power efficiency and quieter operation, all while maintaining the typical benefits of wideband LMR motors.
The DRAKE haptic motor lineup also introduces a number of firsts. Each motor unit is completely weather sealed, and is available in four different varieties; a general purpose wideband version (MR), a low frequency resonant version for music and sub-bass (LR), a high frequency resonant version for alerts and textures (HF), and a version that produces sharp impact haptics (LFi).
ALL-NEW DRAKE FEATURES:
High Haptic Output - Strong 4.5 Grms vibration, and crisp 19 Gp impact haptics
Compact - 9.5mm diameter x 23mm length
Wideband with Rumble - 10hz to 300hz+ frequency response range
Quiet Operation - Ideal for audio applications and use in low noise environments
Easy to Drive - Operates at 1.0 - 3.3vms AC, 170 mArms peak. Works with standard motor controllers. Overdrive capable
Fast Response Time - Less than 10ms response time for highly responsive haptics
