Thumb or Finger Devices with Electrically Conductive Tips amp; Other Features for Use with Capacitive Touch Screens and/or Mechanical Keyboards Employed in Smartphones amp; Other Small Mobile Devices
A pair of thumb or finger sleeves incorporating electrically conductive tips operates as passive styluses that enable accurate user engagement with capacitive touch displays. Capacitive touch screens are commonly found on smartphones and other handheld devices. Capacitive touch screens are normally activated by direct thumb or finger touch. The human thumb or finger, however, provides a contact area that is too large to allow precise character selection on the small keys found on these devices. The present invention satisfies the electrical conductivity requirements for capacitive touch screens and, through its small contact point, reduces the excessive contact area of the thumb or finger. This invention also maintains or improves upon other operating characteristics of the thumb or finger when interacting with capacitive touch screens and small mechanical keyboards.
