  • ACTUATION ASSEMBLY FOR USE WITH A TOUCHSCREEN DEVICE
    Publication number: 20150279588
    Abstract: An actuation assembly includes a housing, a resilient member and an actuator member. These components are arranged such that the actuator member is displaceable relative to the housing such that upon application of a force to the actuator member against a bias of the resilient member, a terminal end of the actuator member contacts a target area of a screen surface of a touchscreen device to provide an electrically conductive path between the screen surface and the top portion of the actuator member. Other embodiments are disclosed.
