Application of capacitive coupling to the design of an absolute-coordinate pointing device

Capacitive coupling is applied to develop an absolutecoordinate-based interface system for a personal computer (PC). The system consists of a pointing device and a digitizing tablet. The pointing device is a cordless stylus that does not need any power supply. The digitizing tablet is wire-connected...
