Connectors providing HAPTIC feedback

摘要

A first connector may include a housing defining a first connector face to be positioned in a first position or a second position proximate to a second connector face of a second connector. A first extremely high frequency (EHF) communication unit may be disposed in the housing for communicating with a second EHF communication unit of the second connector when the first connector face is positioned in first or second position relative to the second connector face. A first magnet may be disposed in the housing. The first magnet may align with and repel a second magnet disposed relative to the second connector face when the first connector face is positioned in the second position. The first magnet may be configured not to align with and not to repel the second magnet when first connector face is positioned in the first position relative to the second connector face.

1. A first connector comprising:
a housing defining a first connector face configured to be positioned in at least one of a first position and a second position proximate to a second connector face of a second connector; a first extremely high frequency (EHF) communication unit disposed in the housing relative to the first connector face for communicating with a second EHF communication unit of the second connector when the first connector face is positioned in at least one of the first position and the second position relative to the second connector face; and a first magnet disposed in the housing relative to the first connector face, the first magnet configured to align with and repel a second magnet disposed relative to the second connector face when the first connector face is positioned in the second position relative to the second connector face, and the first magnet is configured not to align with and not to repel the second magnet when the first connector face is positioned in the first position relative to the second connector face.
