  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17723867 Titled 'INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM STYLUS BODY WITH FLEXIBLE BUTTON ACTUATOR'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a stylus for an information handling system that can be used to write on a touchscreen display. The stylus has buttons integrated into its housing, which are made of a thin material connected to the main housing material. When a button is pressed, a leaf spring inside the stylus pushes upwards and a magnet attached to it is detected by a magnetic sensor. This allows the system to recognize the button press and perform the desired action.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information handling system stylus includes components to support active tip writing inputs at a touchscreen display controller by buttons integrated in the stylus housing as a thin material formed contiguous with the stylus housing material. A leaf spring biases upwards at the button thin material and has a magnet coupled to it that, upon a press at the button, is detected as increased magnetic flux by a magnetic sensor disposed under the leaf spring.
