Claim Text:
1. A system, comprising: a stylus, comprising a body having an elongated portion, a tapered portion coupled to the elongated portion, and a conductive layer covering the elongated portion of the body, a conductive layer covering the elongated portion of the body, the elongated portion that is covered with the conductive layer is longer than the tapered portion, and the conductive layer forming a predetermined shape at one side of the elongated portion; an electronic device, comprising a touch sensor generating a sensing signal according to the predetermined shape of the conductive layer when the elongated portion of the stylus is positioned substantially parallel with the touch sensor, the touch sensor senses the elongated portion via the predetermined shape of the conductive layer; a touch controller, coupled to the touch sensor, receiving the sensing signal and generating a first signal based on the received sensing signal; and a processing unit, coupled to the touch controller, receiving the first signal and triggering a function of the electronic device based on the first signal.
