Embodiments of the invention relate to methods and systems for providing customized “haptic messaging” to users of handheld communication devices in a variety of applications. In one embodiment, a method of providing virtual touch to a handheld communication device includes: receiving an input signal associated with a virtual touch; outputting a request relating to a contact with a user-interface member coupled to a handheld communication device; and providing a control signal associated with the contact to an actuator coupled to the handheld communication device, the control signal being configured to cause the actuator to output a haptic effect associated with the virtual touch.
1. A method, comprising: receiving, by a first communication device at different times, a first input signal associated with a first virtual touch and a second input signal associated with a second virtual touch, the first communication device including a first user-interface member, a second user-i
1. A method, comprising: receiving, by a first communication device at different times, a first input signal associated with a first virtual touch and a second input signal associated with a second virtual touch, the first communication device including a first user-interface member, a second user-interface member, and an actuator, wherein the first user-interface member and the second user-interface member are hardware, whereby the first and second virtual touches originate from a second communication device operated by a user to communicate the first and second virtual touches to the first communication device;outputting, at the first communication device, a request to initiate a contact with the first user-interface member when the first virtual touch is received and a second request to initiate a contact with the second user-interface member when the second virtual touch is received;receiving the contact; andproviding a control signal to the actuator in response to the contact, the control signal configured to cause the actuator to output a first haptic effect associated with the first virtual touch when the first virtual touch is received and a second haptic effect associated with the second virtual touch when the second virtual touch is received. 2. The method of claim 1 further comprising extracting a haptic code from the first input signal, the control signal being based at least in part on the haptic code. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the first user-interface member includes one of a key, a button, a key pad, a direction pad, a touch screen, a scroll wheel, a mini-joystick, a trackball, and a knob. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the first virtual touch is associated with one of a handshake, a high-five, a pat on the back, a pulse sensation, a heartbeat sensation, and a pet purring sensation. 5. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium containing executable instructions which cause a data processing system to perform a method, the method comprising: receiving, by a first communication device at different times, a first input signal associated with a first virtual and a second input signal associated with a second virtual touch, the first communication device including a first user-interface member, a second user-interface member, and an actuator, wherein the first user-interface member and the second user-interface member are hardware, whereby the first and second virtual touches originate from a second communication device operated by a user to communicate the first and second virtual touches to the first communication device;outputting, at the first communication device, a request to initiate a contact with the first user-interface member when the first virtual touch is received and a second request to initiate a contact with the second user-interface member when the second virtual touch is received;receiving the contact; andproviding a control signal in response to the contact, the control signal configured to cause the actuator to output a first haptic effect associated with the first virtual touch when the first virtual touch is received and a second haptic effect associated with the second virtual touch when the second virtual touch is received. 6. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 5 further comprising extracting a haptic code from the first input signal, the control signal being based at least in part on the haptic code. 7. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 5 wherein the first virtual touch is associated with one of a handshake, a high-five, a pat on the back, a pulse sensation, a heartbeat sensation, and a pet purring sensation. 8. An apparatus, comprising: a first user-interface member coupled to a body and a second user-interface member coupled to the body, wherein the first user-interface member and the second user-interface member are hardware;a processor;an actuator coupled to the body and in communication with the processor; anda memory in communication with the processor, the memory storing instructions configuring the processor to: receive, at different times, a first input signal associated with a first virtual touch and a second input signal associated with a second virtual touch at the apparatus, whereby the first and second virtual touches originate from a second apparatus operated by a user to communicate the first and second virtual touches to the apparatus;output a request to initiate a contact with the first user-interface member when the first virtual touch is received and a second request to initiate a contact with the second user-interface member when the second virtual touch is received;receive an indication that the contact was made; andprovide a control signal to the actuator in response to the contact, the control signal configured to cause the actuator to output a first haptic effect when the first virtual touch is received and a second haptic effect associated with the second virtual touch when the second virtual touch is received. 9. The apparatus of claim 8 wherein the body is included in a handheld communication device. 10. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein the handheld communication device includes one of a cellular phone, a satellite phone, a cordless phone, a personal digital assistant, a pager, a two-way radio, a portable computer, a game console controller, a personal gaming device, and an MP3 player. 11. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein the first user-interface member includes at least one of a key, a button, a key pad, a direction pad, a touch screen, a scroll wheel, a mini-joystick, a trackball, and a knob. 12. The apparatus of claim 8 wherein the first virtual touch is associated with one of a handshake, a high-five, a pat on the back, a pulse sensation, a heartbeat sensation, and a pet purring sensation.
