Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the prototype of a low cost haptically augmented stylus for pen computing on touch screens. The stylus supports human-computer interaction through a dynamic haptic feedback. This reflective feedback is generated by a magnetically operated brake system. The feedback actuator is integrated in the stylus. Therefore, the pen supports the use of multiple styli on a single touch screen. The pen provides a broad scale of feedback – especially for the display of haptic surface cues. Hence, it is predestined for stroke gestures, as they are commonly used in crossing-based pen interfaces.
