Stylus
A stylus is an input pointer which is used
for the operation of touch-screens, mo-
bile phones or PDAs.
The stylus consists basically of a plastic
pointer with a softer plastic core. The
sleeve is hard and can be gripped and the
softer core emerges at the tip and is de-
signed to touch the screen as softly as
possible (i.e. without the danger of
scratching the screen).
The stylus is more accurate than opera-
tion using the fingers, since only the thin
tip touches the screen. In addition, dirty
marks on the screen caused by finger-
prints are avoided. TMC
