⭐ Phase 1: Understanding Real User Problems

Before drawing the first sketch, our team spent months collecting feedback from students, artists, office workers, and tablet users.

We identified three recurring issues:

• Many stylus pens only work on one type of device.

• Switching between tablets and phones requires carrying multiple tools.

• Palm rejection is essential for writing on iPad, but useless on other screens.

This feedback led to a clear direction:

👉 A single stylus that adapts to different screens with one press of a button.

⭐ Phase 2: Engineering the Dual-Mode System

Designing two completely different technologies in one pen was the biggest challenge.

iPad Mode(Top Button)

We integrated an active signal module compatible with 2018–2025 iPads, allowing:

• Palm rejection

• Pixel-level accuracy

• Low-latency writing

Universal Mode (Bottom Button)

This required a different circuit with:

• Capacitive touch output

• Universal screen compatibility (Android phones, Windows touch laptops, POS machines, etc.)

• Zero pairing requirement

Making both systems work without interference required dozens of electrical simulations and board layouts.

⭐ Phase 3: Designing the Writing Experience

A stylus is not about specs — it’s about feel.

To achieve natural handwriting, we focused on:

• Weight balance

• Grip comfort for long sessions

• A responsive pen tip with durability over 100,000 strokes

• Low writing noise

• Optimized tilt angle performance in iPad mode

We tested more than 23 prototypes, each with different materials, weight distributions, and pen-tip hardness levels.

⭐ Phase 4: Building a Battery System for Real Use Cases

Dual-mode technology requires stable power.
Our engineers developed:

• A high-efficiency circuit board

• Low-power chip architecture

• Fast-charging module (15 minutes → up to 10 hours use)

• Over-current and over-voltage protection

Users don’t want to charge every day — so we engineered it to last.

⭐ Phase 5: Durability & Reliability Testing

Before mass production, the Dual-Mode Stylus goes through a series of stress tests:

• 5,000 plug-and-unplug charging cycles

• 1.2-meter drop tests from multiple angles

• Temperature chamber tests (-10°C to 55°C)

• 100-hour endurance writing test

• Tip-wear simulation test (equivalent to 6 months heavy use)

Only after passing all tests can it move to the final production line.

⭐ Phase 6: Final Touches — A Product That Feels Premium

After the engineering phase, we finalize:

• Surface coating

• Color palette

• Button placement & tactile feedback

• Custom logo & packaging options

Because a great stylus isn’t only functional — it should look and feel like a tool you’re proud to carry.

⭐ Conclusion: A Stylus Designed for Everyone

With this Dual-Mode Stylus, we set out to create a tool that adapts to its user — not the other way around.

Whether you switch between:

✔ iPad
✔ Android tablet
✔ Smartphone
✔ Windows touch device

…you now need only one stylus.

From idea to engineering to final polish, every detail was built to offer flexibility, precision, and reliability in a single product.
