Stylus for a handheld computer

Methods and systems for securely transferring assets via a cloud-based clipboard are provided. In an embodiment, input is indicating an asset is received from an input device at a computing device, which transmits to asset to cloud-based storage. The method stores a reference to a storage location of the asset in the cloud-based storage in the input device. The method receives, from the input device, a request for the asset at a second computing device, the request indicating the reference. The requested asset is retrieved from the cloud-based storage and rendered on the second computing device. The asset can be encrypted prior to transmission to the cloud-based storage and a decryption key for the asset is stored in the input device. In response to a request, the encrypted asset is retrieved and provided to a second computing device, where the asset is decrypted using the key from the input device.

Secure cloud-based clipboard for touch devices

Ball point pen

A stylus having a pressure sensitive side switch for use with digitizer apparatus is disclosed. The pressure sensitive side switch is activated by the application of pressure thereto substantially normal to the axis of the stylus by the finger of a user. In the illustrated embodiments, the pressure sensitive switch comprises a movable element, and the switch provides a signal related to movement of the movable element substantially normal to the stylus axis. The switch output in the preferred embodiment is linearly related to movement of the movable element. The switch may comprise a magnet and a Hall-effect device mounted in the stylus for movement relative to each other. The pressure sensitive side switch may be used to control line width, coloring, gray scaling, Z-axis input, etc.

Digitizer stylus having side switch

Input devices and methods for charging input devices are disclosed. A stylus input device has a tip configured to interact with a touch computing device and a body connected to the tip. The stylus has a nozzle housing between its body and tip, electrical components, and an internal rechargeable power source. The internal power source can store power received via a connection between an external power source and a conductive surface on the nozzle housing and supply power to the stylus' electrical components. A method for charging a stylus determines whether power is being received via an electrical connection between a conductive surface on a nozzle of the stylus and an external power source and then determines an amount of power stored in the stylus' battery. If the stylus is receiving power from the external power source and the battery is not fully charged, the method charges the rechargeable battery.
