Abstract

A stylus includes a pen-tip; a sensor; and a processor operable to: operate in a lower-power mode and a higher-power mode; detect, with the sensor, a defined frequency or a defined range of frequencies indicating shaking of the stylus; and transition from the lower-power mode to the higher-power mode in response to the detection of the defined frequency or the defined range of frequencies. The processor is prevented from transitioning from the lower-power mode to the higher-power mode in response to detection of a frequency other than the defined frequency and a range of frequencies other than the defined range of frequencies. The processor, in response to a relative motion between the stylus and a device in communication with the stylus, process both a device signal representative of the relative motion and a stylus signal representative of the detection of the defined frequency or the defined range of frequencies.
