GTMM haptics patent news today. Mentions gaming as one application:

WESTERVILLE, OH--(Marketwired - Jun 15, 2016) - The Guitammer Company (OTCQB: GTMM), the worldwide leader in haptic-tactile broadcast technology and creator of the award-winning ButtKicker®-brand low frequency audio transducers that provide a uniquely immersive entertainment experience, announced today that it recently received a patent on a new type of low frequency transducer for haptic effects.

This new transducer, the "K Series," is completely different and distinct from the Company's "ButtKicker®" brand products. It features a form factor that allows it to be scaled from one centimeter (less than 1/2 of one-inch wide) or even smaller, all the way up to 30 centimeters (12 inches) and beyond. For example, a 12.5 cm (approximately 5 inches) wide unit is less than 3.5 cm (approximately 1.4 inches) thick.

Because of their width to thickness to power ratios, these transducers will be ideal in applications and products that ButtKicker transducers cannot be used with and should help further expand and grow Guitammer's haptic hardware sales, especially in the cinema and gaming markets.

Like Guitammer's ButtKicker low frequency transducers, these units are both powerful and musically accurate and designed for the most demanding types of installations and uses.

The "K series" is expected to be available for sale in Q4 of 2016; pricing has not been released.
