HID Controller With a Retractable Stylus Tip - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18226685 titled 'HID Controller With a Retractable Stylus Tip

The abstract of the patent application describes an apparatus that includes a human-interface device (HID) controller with either an extended reality (XR) controller or a mouse controller, along with an undetachable, fully retractable stylus pointed tip that does not protrude beyond the exterior of the HID controller when fully retracted.

  • HID controller with XR or mouse controller
  • Undetachable, fully retractable stylus pointed tip
  • Stylus tip does not protrude beyond HID controller exterior when fully retracted

Potential Applications: - Interactive digital art creation - Precision drawing and design work - Virtual reality gaming

Problems Solved: - Accidental damage to stylus tip - Inconvenience of carrying a separate stylus - Enhanced user experience in XR environments

Benefits: - Improved precision and control in digital interactions - Streamlined user interface design - Enhanced user comfort and convenience

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Human-Interface Device for XR Applications" This technology could be utilized in industries such as graphic design, architecture, and gaming to enhance user interaction and productivity in XR environments.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the retractable stylus improve user experience in XR applications? 2. What are the potential drawbacks of integrating a stylus into an HID controller?


Original Abstract Submitted

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a human-interface-device (HID) controller that includes at least one of an extended reality (XR) controller or a mouse controller. The apparatus further includes an undetachable, fully retractable stylus pointed tip configured to extend from the HID controller, configured so that the stylus tip does not protrude beyond an exterior of the HID controller when in a fully retracted position.
