Η Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), φαίνεται ότι έλυσε ένα πολύ παλιό problem with the styluses, and filed a patent application. It was published today by the USPTO, and as it turns out the term “communication stylus” is arguably the best application of the concept to date.
The project is currently only on paper, but the technology for its construction devices is already available.
Η Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), has considered all the available solutions and concluded that "the problem with all different types of pens is that everything requires the user to write on a specialized surface", adding that ΄ "there is a need for a pen that can enter data on a computing device, regardless of the surface on which it is used. "
Η company, therefore, wants to create a stylus with accelerometers that will work your position sensors, providing tips for writing, a transmitter and a receiver, so that the user can be connected to accessories and add-ons.
In fact, the stylus will understand the movement of the hand, and will understand what the user is trying to write or draw by interpreting the changes in place, and transferring the results to a computer or smartphone.
Of course, this idea is not entirely new and such styluses already exist on the market. However, Apple's is a refined version and considering how much Apple loves it Bluetooth 4.0, if the project becomes a reality it will be the first device of its kind that can boast of its long life batteryher
