Stylus Pen

This is a proposed entry.
This entry is currently being proposed as a permanent part of the ontology. It should be considered a draft and not really part of the "official" ontology.

Stylus Pens are pen-shaped input devices, usually made of plastic, used to make pressure on a touch-sensitive screen, usually when a finer, more precise input is required, in which case the use of the player's fingers wouldn't be satisfactory.

Examples

Strong example

In Namco's game Pac-Pix [Namco, 2005], for Nintendo DS, the player makes use of a Stylus Pen to draw shapes that will be recognised and animated accordingly as elements within the game.
