Claim 14:
15. One or more computer storage media having computer-executable instructions for changing a mode of operation of a computing device using a pen device that, based at least in part on execution by a processor of the pen device, cause the processor of the pen device to:
obtain, via a sensor of the pen device, gesture input data;
compare the obtained gesture input data to an application-specific gesture pattern;
based on the gesture input data matching the application-specific gesture pattern, transition the pen device to an active state;
responsive to detecting an uplink signal from the computing device, send, via the pen device, a wakeup event signal to change a mode of operation of the computing device, wherein the wakeup event signal requests a transition of the computing device from a low power state to an active state and triggers activation of a particular application, corresponding to the application-specific gesture pattern, to open; and
receive an adjusted application-specific gesture pattern from the computing device based at least in part on feedback provided regarding the wakeup event.
