Introduction

Haptics Connect is a universal haptic device orchestration and sensation‑scripting platform for immersive media and real‑time interactive experiences.
At the core of our ecosystem is Melody — an interactive toy we engineered in‑house combined with our proprietary timeline‑first haptics engine.
We built Melody not just as a device, but as the foundation of an entire modular ecosystem for developers, creators, and immersive platforms.
Instead of fragmented, brand‑specific implementations, Haptics Connect delivers one unified integration layer where hardware, scripting tools, device transport (BLE + WiFi), and SDK ergonomics work as a single system.

Why choose Haptics Connect?

Haptics Connect blends hardware innovation, timeline‑accurate scripting, and developer‑centric design to deliver the most universal platform for media‑driven sensation experiences. Key advantages include:
  • Melody Device + Engine – Our own haptic hardware device and scripting engine in one system:
    ✔ Universal scripted motion playback
    ✔ BLE & WiFi transport support
    ✔ Cross‑brand device orchestration for partner devices
    ✔ Seekable, synchronized timeline state for videos and VR players
  • “Write Once, Feel Anywhere” SDK – One universal SDK to control strokes, piston motion, vibration, rotation, and intensity curves consistently across brands.
  • Frame‑Accurate Sensation Sync – Motion scripts and real‑time command streams delivered with millisecond timeline precision.
  • Real‑Time Motion Interpolation – Stream sequential haptic points and our engine generates smooth velocity and motion curves automatically.
  • Multi‑Device Timeline Orchestration – Start, stop, seek, pause, and monitor multiple devices simultaneously under one shared session timeline.
  • Security by Default – JWT Bearer authentication and OTP secrets for protected requests and device binding.
  • Single API Surface – No sandbox or environment switching, all integrations point to: api.haptics connect.com
  • Minimal Integration Complexity – Predictable JSON schemas and reusable control primitives.
  • Creator Tooling – Build or integrate timeline editors, players, and scripted sensation libraries on top of Melody APIs.

The Melody Ecosystem

Melody is more than hardware — it unlocks a full haptics ecosystem:

Hardware

  • Melody Interactive Device (built in‑house by Haptics Connect)
    A next‑generation haptic toy capable of executing timeline‑first motion scripts using BLE or WiFi transport

Software & Tooling

  • Universal Haptics SDK (UH‑SDK)
    A cross‑brand SDK that standardizes motion command semantics across supported devices
  • Melody Scripting Layer
    Timeline‑based scripting primitives for video libraries, VR content, web players, or custom haptics engines
  • Haptics Session Orchestrator
    Shared timeline control that synchronizes media playback to real‑world device motion
  • Transport Abstraction
    Nearby control via BLE API, remote control via WiFi hubs/bridges, and Haptic Points Streams (HPS) for smoothing high‑frequency motion input

Supported Device Connectivity

We support and unify control for two major communication paths:
TransportUsage
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)Nearby device pairing, motion commands, and timeline scripting
WiFi Hub / WiFi BridgeRemote device command delivery through network‑paired hubs or smart bridge routing
Both transports feed into a unified command contract, giving every device identical motion semantics and timeline scripting support where available.

Core API Domains

The API ecosystem is organized into logical domains for device control and creation tooling:
  • Device Info – Inspect device capabilities, bounds, state, and transport mode
  • Session Control – Manage synchronized haptic playback sessions tied to a timeline
  • Haptic Commands – Direct strokes, vibration, piston targets, intensity curves, rotational motion
  • Haptic Points Stream (HPS) – High‑frequency sequential motion points with automatic smoothing
  • Haptic Script Control – Server‑orchestrated sensation timeline playback (Melody scripts)
  • Haptic Loop Control – Automatic up/down motion loops inside a defined range
  • OTP Control – Short‑lived one‑time secrets for secure device player linking or binding
  • Maintenance – Firmware upkeep and diagnostic endpoints if implemented by device and defined by OpenAPI
