Abstract: Capacitive styluses and methods for use thereof. A stylus according to the present application may include a finger engagement portion adapted to engage the finger of a user. Furthermore, the stylus may include an extension portion that is adapted to extend beyond the distal tip of the finger of the user. An electrically conductive contact surface may be disposed beyond the distal tip of the finger and be contactable with a capacitive touch panel. An electrically conductive path may be provided between the contact surface and the finger engagement portion to establish electrical communication therebetween. The contact surface may be of sufficient size to affect a capacitive sensor of a capacitive touch panel when in contact therewith and when the stylus is mounted to the finger of a user.
