Company description: Immersion Corp. is the innovator behind the emerging technology known as FORCE FEEDBACK which allows computer-users to actually FEEL information stored within their computers. From video games to data analysis, by enabling users to take advantage of their natural physical senses, Immersion Corp. has greatly enhanced the computing experience.

Immersion Corp. has developed a standard hardware and software architecture for force feedback computer peripherals known as I-FORCE and has been licensing the technology to makers of joysticks and other computer peripheral devices for consumer markets.

I-FORCE has already been endorsed by four major computer peripheral manufacturers including CH Products of Vista, Calif., Advanced Gravis or Burnaby BC, SC&T of Phoenix, Ariz., and Interactive I/O of Orange, Calif.

Beyond consumer products, Immersion Corp. has developed Force Feedback technologies for a variety of scientific and industrial applications. The Impulse Engine from Immersion has been targeted at medical simulation, scientific visualization and industrial control applications.

For example, Immersion's Impulse Engine has been used in training systems which teach doctors the manual aspects of Laparoscopic Surgery through computer simulation. Immersion's force feedback allows such simulations to provide realistic simulated feel, critical for teaching the fine dexterity aspects of the procedure.
