Description
The BOS1901-KIT is a Development Kit to help
users who want to get familiarized with the
BOS1901 Piezo Haptic Driver IC.
The USB powered kit appears as an USB Audio
device for the computer, which allows the rapid
generation of waveforms using existing audio
software like Audacity® for haptic prototyping.
Each breakable miniature PCB gives access to all
signals allowing the user to experiment with the
BOS1901 using a development platform of his/her
choice.
Standard commercial piezo actuators are provided
as a starting point to begin experiencing with
haptic feedback.
