The present invention describes a method, a dynamic user interface and an electronic device for generating user detectable multi-functional feedback with a single component in response to a stimulus signal. In the invention, one or more resonating vibrating element(s), e.g. piezo-bender, are attached to a certain component of the device. A conventional electronic device comprises different components for generating a haptic feedback signal, a buzzer signal, a vibratory alert signal or an audio signal. All the above- mentioned feedback signals can be generated with the piezo-element attached to, e.g. a lens or a housing. This means significant decrement in the space needed and in the power consumption compared to the situation, where the feedback signals are generated with separate components.

L'invention porte sur un procédé, une interface utilisateur dynamique, et un dispositif électrique produisant au moyen d'un seul composant une réaction plurifonctionnelle détectable par l'utilisateur en réponse à un signal de stimulus. A cet effet l'invention recourt à un ou plusieurs éléments vibrants, par exemple à des piézo-vibreurs fixés à un certain composant du dispositif. Le dispositif électronique, de type classique, comporte différents composants produisant un signal de réaction haptique, de bruiteur, vibratoire d'alarme, ou audio, tous produits par l'élément piézo-électrique fixé par exemple à une lentille ou à un boîtier. On obtient ainsi un gain significatif d'espace et d'énergie par comparaison aux situations où les signaux de réaction son produits par des composants séparés.
