force feedback
Controller vibration technology
Force feedback is a technology that lets a device push back against the user, simulating physical resistance or texture through motors and vibrations.
Game controllers use force feedback to make impacts feel real—a steering wheel that tugs when you hit a curb, or a joystick that shudders during turbulence.
The term emphasizes that information flows both ways: the user gives input, and the device responds with tactile output.
