Abstract
An architecture is disclosed for improved tilt detection for a radiative pickup stylus. The architecture includes a contact sensing mechanism and a coaxial conductor assembly which provides both position measurement and tilt sensing measurement features. By using the contact sensor to establish a calibration for the position and tilt detection elements, an improved, highly accurate position and tilt sensing capability is provided for radiative pickup stylus for a digitizing display.
