Abstract
Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to a system and method whereby a haptic feedback mechanism may be integrated into a rotatable gear module such that rotating the module may generate pure mechanical haptic feedback. The gear module may be integrated into a wearable device, such as headphones, such that a set of magnets incorporated within may be aligned and misaligned with a plurality of teeth when the gear module rotates. In response to the rotation, each alignment and misalignment of the set of magnets with the plurality of teeth may generate pure haptic feedback. In embodiments, the gear module may be rotated to increment or decrement a unit of measurement associated with the headphones. Each unit of increment or decrement of change may produce haptic feedback based on the alignment and misalignment of the set of magnets.
