"hap•tics definition
A science concerned with the sense of touch "
This is the definition word for word proved to me my dictionary.com and this is very close but not the same definition that is giving to us and our classroom book. This definition makes a lot of scenes because of the origin, which is provided by the link and paragraph below.
The origin of the word haptics is the Greek haptikos, meaning able to grasp or perceive. Haptic sensations are created in consumer devices by actuators, or motors, which create a vibration. Those vibrations are managed and controlled by embedded software, and integrated into device user interfaces and applications via the embedded control software APIs.
