A method for providing a thermal feedback, includes executing a virtual reality application providing a virtual space that includes a virtual area to which an area temperature attribute is assigned, and a virtual object to which an object temperature attributed is assigned. An area event that reflects that a player character enters the virtual area is detected. A feedback device is controlled to output thermal feedback associated to the area temperature attribute when the area event is detected, the feedback device outputting the thermal feedback using a thermoelectric element performing a thermoelectric operation. An object event reflecting the player character is influenced by the virtual object is detected. The feedback device is controlled to override the thermal feedback associated to the area temperature attribute and output thermal feedback associated to the object temperature when the object is detected while the player character is in the virtual area.

In one embodiment, a method receives a downstream signal and an upstream signal in a same frequency band. The downstream signal and the upstream signal are separated into a first path and a second path. The downstream signal using the first path and the upstream signal using the second path are amplified in an analog domain. The method isolates the downstream signal and the upstream signal from one another and sends the downstream signal downstream to a subscriber device and sends the upstream signal towards a full duplex node.

To prevent delay in tactile presentation timing due to the responsiveness of the tactile presentation device, and to improve the reproducibility of the tactile sense. A drive control device according to the present technology includes a drive control unit that causes a drive unit that drives a tactile presentation device by a drive signal based on a tactile signal to execute a pre-drive, which is to drive the tactile presentation device in advance with respect to a rise timing of the tactile signal. By the pre-drive described above, a timing at which a tactile presentation is actually started can be brought close to a rise timing of a tactile signal.

A method of operating a TDD-based interference cancellation repeater, the method comprises setting a compensation gain of a gain compensator differently in an uplink communication period and a downlink communication period, setting an optimal coefficient of an adaptive filter in the uplink communication period and an optimal coefficient of the adaptive filter in the downlink communication period the same, based on the set compensation gain of the gain compensator and removing an interference signal in the uplink communication period or the downlink communication period according to the set optimal coefficient of the adaptive filter.

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed that allow an electronic device to autonomously adapt one or more user alerts of the electronic device. For example, some embodiments may include a method for operating a haptic device including driving a haptic device using a control signal, measuring a frequency related to the operation of the haptic device and comparing the measured frequency with a target frequency. A control signal is adjusted based on the comparison to drive the haptic device to the target frequency.

Embodiments described herein relate to methods and apparatus for outputting a haptic signal to a haptic transducer. A method for triggering a haptic signal being output to a haptic transducer comprises receiving an audio signal for output through an audio output transducer; determining whether the audio signal comprises a haptic trigger based on an indication of a rate of change of an amplitude of the audio signal, and responsive to determining that the audio signal comprises a haptic trigger, triggering the haptic signal to be output to the haptic transducer.
