Abstract: Touch-based input devices, such as a stylus, can receive tactile input from a user. The tactile input functions can be performed by a touch sensor, such as a capacitive sensing device. A touch sensor can be integrated into a stylus in a low profile form. Tactile input can be received at the user's natural grip location. Furthermore, the stylus can effectively distinguish between tactile inputs from a user and disregard sustained tactile inputs that are provided while the user simply holds the stylus at the user's natural grip location.

Abstract: A camera may a plurality of sensors to measure positions of lenses and/or image sensor for control the positions of the lenses and/or image sensor for various image capturing functions. The camera may include a control circuit for configuring the sensors. The control circuit may include a plurality of conductors arranged in different patterns relative to different sensors installed at different locations. The control circuit may use the conductors to generate magnetic field(s) on the sensors, and use the magnetic field to configure the sensors. Once configured, the control circuit may communicate with the sensors based on the sensors' configuration, to obtain position measurements from the sensors to control the actuators.
