” H&T Stylus Pen ”

スタイラスペン

H&T stylus pen is a slender, high-performance electronic pen that does not require batteries and can be stored in your smartphone !

You can express the strength of drawing, color depth, touch feeling…etc. in various ways, and you can experience the fun of electronic pen input like never before.

H&T stylus pen can be widely used not only in design and comic drawing, but also in many fields and its applications such as education, medical care, bank, and business.

Feature of “H&T Stylus Pen ” 

  • Excellent drawing performance, high expressiveness

    The unique pressure sensing mechanism (patented) enables various expressions such as drawing strength, color depth, and touch feeling.
  • Easy to use and quick to respond

    Achieves ease of use of pen input and excellent followability! You can use it like a ballpoint pen.
  • No batteries required, convenient to carry

    Battery-less, stylish and slender electronic pen ! It can be stored in the smartphone.
  • High performance but low cost

    By adopting a hybrid touch pen sensor that allows both finger touch and pen input, the number of parts and mounting cost have been reduced to save the cost !

★ H & T Stylus Pen is developed using "Electromagnetic induction method" that can detect pen pressure in detail

The electronic pens in smartphones and tablets currently are roughly divided into the following three types.
① Touch pen (passive pen)
② Stylus pen (Active pen)
③ Stylus pen (electromagnetic induction pen)

-----------------------------------------------------------

① Touch pens (passive pens) can be provided at low cost, but they are not easy to use because the pen tip is thick and it is easy to falsely detect the palm.

② The stylus pen (Active pen) is relatively expensive and requires a battery, so it tends to be heavy, thick, and have an unbalanced center of gravity.

The stylus pen of electromagnetic induction is battery-less, easy to use, and has good performance.
In addition, since the pen pressure can be detected in detail, various expressions such as drawing strength, color depth, and touch feeling are possible, and a more natural and human communication function can be provided.

Electronic pen input solution provided by H&T Technology

The system for inputting with an electronic pen to a smartphone or tablet mainly consists of three devices, a stylus sensor, a controller IC, and firmware.

What H&T Technology can supply:
① The electronic pen (H&T stylus pen)
② Touch pen sensor (hybrid type)
③ Controller IC (mixed signal SoC)
④ Firmware
For each component of, we will provide a solution that meets the needs of our customers.

①Electronic pen ( H & T stylus pen )

スタイラスペン

◆ Can be stored in a smartphone, easy to use, and has a natural writing feel !

The electromagnetic induction stylus pen developed by H&T Technology is a battery-less, easy-to-use electronic pen that features hand-drawn input with a natural writing feel.

Since it can detect pen pressure, it is possible to express various expressions such as drawing strength, color depth, and touch feeling, and it is possible to provide a more natural and human communication function.

H&T stylus pen is thin and light, it can be stored in a smart phone or tablet, and the pen equipped with our patented technology is modularized, so it is the best variation for the design required that customer can be delivered.

②Hybrid touch pen sensor

◆Hybrid sensor reduces the number of parts and mounting cost to realizes cost reduction!

When configuring a finger touch and stylus pen, most of stylus pen sensors required the sensor to be configured with an expensive FPCB. In addition, it required to put a sensor under the display, In total, it was composed of two pieces with a touch sensor.

Cost reduction can be achieved by using the metal mesh which developed by us instead of FPCB. Moreover, by using a touch sensor and a hybrid as a transparent sensor, the number of sensors becomes one, and cost can be further reduced. Best of all, it's like the traditional touch panel mounting method, making it easy to produce.

③Controller IC ( mixed signal SoC )

◆Controller IC for stylus pen ( H&T in-house developed )

H&T Technology can provide customers with ICs for recognizing stylus pens in electronic pen input systems and electrostatically coupled ICs compatible with "hybrid touch pen sensors". By introducing these controller ICs, your platform will be available for both finger touch and pen input.

④Firmware

H&T Technology develops and provides firmware according to customer's request.
