Web APIs (navigator, geolocation, history)

What Web API is being used in this code?

// Detecting device capability
function canVibrate() {
  return 'vibrate' in navigator;
}

// Making device vibrate with a pattern
function vibrateDevice() {
  if (canVibrate()) {
    // Vibrate for 200ms, pause for 100ms, vibrate for 400ms
    navigator.vibrate([200, 100, 400]);
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

// Stopping vibration
function stopVibration() {
  if (canVibrate()) {
    navigator.vibrate(0);
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

Haptic Feedback API
Vibration API
This code uses the Vibration API: 1) It's accessed through navigator.vibrate(), 2) The method accepts a single duration in milliseconds or an array of alternating vibration/pause durations for pattern vibration, 3) Passing 0 or an empty array cancels any ongoing vibration, 4) The API is primarily available on mobile devices with vibration hardware, 5) It requires no special permissions in most browsers, though some may restrict it to user-triggered events, 6) The canVibrate() function correctly implements feature detection to check for API support, 7) This API enables tactile feedback for games, notifications, or interactive experiences, 8) It's a simple yet effective way to enhance mobile user experiences with physical feedback.
