Patent Images
1. A system for providing stylus tactile feel of a simulated surface using an electronic device, the system comprising:
- a stylus operative to affect an input to the electronic device via interaction with a working surface thereof, the stylus being further operative to interact with the working surface such that electrostatic charges exhibited between the working surface and the stylus simulate friction force exhibited by the surface to be simulated and an instrument to be simulated, the instrument being represented by the stylus.

Abstract
Systems and methods involving stylus tactile feel are provided. In this regard, a representative system includes: a stylus operative to affect an input to an electronic device via interaction with a working surface thereof, the stylus being further operative to interact with the working surface such that electrostatic charges exhibited between the working surface and the stylus simulate friction force exhibited by the surface to be simulated and an instrument to be simulated, the instrument being represented by the stylus.
