Abstract

Stylet muni d’au moins une manette de commande dont le manche est mobile par rapport au corps du stylet. L’invention concerne un stylet ayant au moins une manette de commande (3) mobile par rapport au corps (2) du stylet. Cette manette de commande (3) est composée d’un manche (5) pouvant être surmonté d’un chapeau (4), et comporte des signes (8) visibles par exemple sur la figure 6. Ces signes (8), qui peuvent tout aussi être présents sur le corps (2), comme le montrent les figures 4 et 7, permettent à un utilisateur non seulement de se repérer visuellement, mais aussi de savoir quel signal il peut émettre. Le manche (5) de la manette de commande peut être incliné et se retrouver dans une ou plusieurs positions (figures 4 et 6), décrire une trajectoire précise (figure 9), ou se déplacer d’un point à un autre le long d’une rainure (9). La manette de commande (3) comprend un système permettant au manche (5) de toujours reprendre la même position, appelée ici position initiale ou centrale, lorsque l’utilisateur n’est plus en contact physique avec la manette de commande. De cette façon un utilisateur, après avoir incliné le manche (5) dans une direction ou après l’avoir déplacé d'un point à un autre de la rainure (9), pourra le faire revenir à sa position centrale sans avoir à l’incliner dans la direction inverse ou à le déplacer à nouveau. Par conséquent, cette position dite initiale permet également à un utilisateur de pouvoir répéter plus facilement une inclinaison ou une trajectoire en agissant sur le manche (5). La répétition d’un mouvement du manche (5) pendant un laps de temps va donner lieu, en fonction du type de mouvement, soit à une répétition d’un même signal, soit à un tout nouveau signal. Dans un exemple d’utilisation, maintenir le manche (5) pendant un certain nombre de secondes dans une position ne génèrera pas le même signal que si le manche s’était trouvé dans cette position sans y être maintenu. De la même manière, maintenir le manche (5) à un endroit précis de la rainure (9) enverra déclenchera un signal différent de celui déclenché si le manche n’avait pas été maintenu à cet endroit. Par ailleurs, un signal précis généré par un mouvement précis du manche (5) par rapport au corps (2) peut avoir pour effet l’émission d’une lumière grâce à un témoin (7) présent sur le corps (2), ou l’émission d’un son grâce à un haut-parleur (6) présent sur le corps (2). Au-delà des réactions du haut-parleur (6) et du témoin (7), le signal que l’invention envoie à un appareil avec lequel il est en interaction est par exemple un signal Bluetooth. La conséquence de l’émission d’un signal peut être la lecture d’une vidéo sur une tablette tactile, la mise hors tension d’un téléphone mobile, ou encore la fermeture de toutes les applications d’un ordinateur afin de revenir à la page d’accueil. La liste des conséquences des signaux générés est non exhaustive. L’invention est destinée à faciliter via une manette de commande mobile, l’utilisation des stylets, en permettant des actions et interactions plus nombreuses, plus variées et donc plus intéressantes entre les utilisateurs de stylets, les stylets et les dispositifs électroniques. Figure pour l’abrégé : figure 3.Stylus provided with at least one control handle, the handle of which is movable relative to the body of the stylus. The invention relates to a stylus having at least one control lever (3) movable relative to the body (2) of the stylus. This control lever (3) is composed of a handle (5) which can be surmounted by a cap (4), and comprises signs (8) visible for example in FIG. 6. These signs (8), which can just as being present on the body (2), as shown in Figures 4 and 7, allow a user not only to locate himself visually, but also to know what signal he can emit. The joystick (5) can be tilted and end up in one or more positions (Figures 4 and 6), describe a precise trajectory (Figure 9), or move from one point to another along it. 'a groove (9). The control handle (3) comprises a system allowing the handle (5) to always return to the same position, here called the initial or central position, when the user is no longer in physical contact with the control handle. In this way a user, after having tilted the handle (5) in one direction or after having moved it from one point to another of the groove (9), will be able to make it return to its central position without having to tilt in the reverse direction or move it again. Consequently, this so-called initial position also allows a user to be able to more easily repeat an inclination or a trajectory by acting on the handle (5). The repetition of a movement of the handle (5) for a period of time will give rise, depending on the type of movement, either to a repetition of the same signal or to a completely new signal. In an example of use, holding the stick (5) for a certain number of seconds in a position will not generate the same signal as if the stick had been in that position without being held there. Likewise, holding the handle (5) at a specific location in the groove (9) will trigger a different signal than the one triggered if the handle had not been held there. Furthermore, a precise signal generated by a precise movement of the handle (5) relative to the body (2) can have the effect of emitting a light thanks to an indicator (7) present on the body (2), or the emission of sound through a speaker (6) present on the body (2). Beyond the reactions of the speaker (6) and the indicator (7), the signal that the invention sends to a device with which it interacts is, for example, a Bluetooth signal. The consequence of emitting a signal can be playing a video on a touchscreen tablet, turning off a mobile phone, or closing all the applications on a computer in order to return to the home page. The list of consequences of the signals generated is not exhaustive. The invention is intended to facilitate the use of styli via a mobile joystick, allowing more, more varied and therefore more interesting actions and interactions between stylus users, styluses and electronic devices.
