We're not sure what kind of novelty value this will have for the jetset DJ set, but D'Groove (the apostrophe stands
for "igital," kay?) uses haptic feedback to control the playback and track position of digital audio sources (be they
CD or MP3). But there's a lot more to it than just using some wax to control your digital audio ala FinalScratch,
though, since it also utilizes force feedback on the Q-Slider (aka the song position slider) to better, um,
feel the music. Trippy, man — we're just used to feeling the music through other particular means.

Christ....they'll give out diplomas for anything now.
I love the ones based on your personal experience.
Haptic feedback to control music is indeed an intriguing idea.. I guess they can make sure DJ feels the music beats intensity on hand to get the idea about how intense the music is and the bits..something available in the racing video games..how many controls it has? what all things the haptic stick can do? it will be really cool if haptic can have pre-configured remix shortcuts etc. I would love to take a peek at this one..
