Abstract

A pen for annotating an electronic screen includes a shell, a tip provided at one end of the shell, and a haptic generator, provided in the shell, that provides vibration of the tip and the shell to emulate resistance of different simulated writing surfaces. The vibration provided by the haptic generator may correspond to friction, abrasion, and flexure of the simulated writing surfaces. The vibration provided by the haptic generator may be based on pre-recorded feedback that is reproduced by the haptic generator. The vibration provided by the haptic generator may be based on a dynamic position of the tip on the electronic screen. The pen may also include an inductor/capacitor, disposed within the shell, that interacts with antenna coils of the electronic screen to provide the dynamic position of the tip on the electronic screen.
