Abstract
A stylus suitable for use with a video disc player of a type in which signals representing changes in electrostatic capacity with respect to a video disc are detected, including a scanning surface brought into contact with the video disc for scanning same, a plurality of inclined surfaces, and a plurality of ridges formed by the inclined surfaces. At least one of several meeting points of the plurality of ridges located in a direction in which scanning is performed is chamfered to render the point blunt. A stylus of the aforesaid shape is produced by a grinding method consisting in using a grinder pan composed of a plate of soft resin having a coat of hard material applied to its surface and forcing a forward end of a stylus against such grinding pan.
