1. A method, comprising: receiving input specifying one or more positional and dimensional properties of a first haptic animation object in an animation tool displaying a representation of a vibrotactile array comprising a plurality of actuators configured to output haptic feedback; computing, based on a rendering algorithm applied to the first haptic animation object, a vector profile for each of the actuators; and computing an intensity value for each of the actuators based on the vector profile of the respective actuator.
