Abstract
A computing device can coordinate haptic action with a stylus. The computing device can receive an indication of the stylus from the stylus and determine that coordinated haptic action is associated with a user input. The computing device can send haptic instructions to the stylus where the haptic instructions are based at least in part on the coordinated haptic action. The stylus can activate its haptic actuator in response to receiving the haptic instruction. The computing device can also activate its haptic actuator based at least in part on the coordinated haptic action.
