In computing, a stylus (or stylus pen) is a small pen-shaped instrument whose tip position on a computer monitor can be detected. It is used to draw, or make selections by tapping. While devices with touchscreens such as newer computers, mobile devices (smartphones and personal digital assistants[1]), game consoles,[2] and graphics tablets[1] can usually be operated with a fingertip, a stylus provides more accurate and controllable input.[3] The stylus has the same function as a mouse or touchpad as a pointing device; its use is commonly called pen computing.
