How about through a glass pane, off of a bag of chips?

Instead of a DMX controller choosing entire scenes that control banks of lights in unison, or narrowing down to individual banks of lights to fine-tune things on the fly with faders, the haptic vests use similar commands and controllers to program different intensities and patterns of vibrations across the sub-regions within the vest.
The haptic engineer/artist usually has packs of go-to scenes that work well and provide distinct but complimentary effects from each other scene (just like the lighting engineer), and may have an entire effect chain pre-programmed for a song or mix, or may be choosing and mixing the haptic scenes on-the-fly as they listen to the audio.

Adobe likely owns the xRes intellectual property, though:
I think the intent is to increase the unique text within the tab titles when you are reading sites that have titles like "My Blog - Tuesday's Article" and "My Blog - Wednesday's Article"; otherwise these would both shorten to "My Blog - ..." as tab count increases, or as other tab width constraints come in to play.
Granted, the heuristic for identifying common text between tabs isn't always great and can sometimes just result in titles looking cut-off.
It appears this e-bike only has a single-speed chain drive, and only a throttle for adjusting motor speed.
Linked in the article, too. While it's not the only source of the problem, it's still a big reason people get tired of looking around for a can in SF and just toss their litter.
Nice flex, but not everyone has this kind of setup.
Might want to be careful about checking resulting aggregated outputs from this code.
