Universal Stylus

The Universal Stylus Initiative is an industry effort to provide interoperable styli on a wide range of devices. Intel recently demo’d multiple styli on a unit at their IDF conference using some early USI compatible hardware. Information is available here:

I’ve attached an app note on the API that was recently made public. Most of the “common” pen data features are already supported in PE, but the following are not:
Transducer Serial Number
Preferred Color
Preferred Line Width
Preferred Line Style

There’s also some Inertial Measurement Unit data, but that’s pretty esoteric at this point.
