Abstract
An input device and an input method using the same are provided. The input device is adapted to a computing device and includes a stylus body, a tip sensing module, a gesture sensing module, a processor and a wireless module. The tip sensing module is configured to detect a touch event on a touch screen of the computing device. The gesture sensing module is configured to detect an orientation of the stylus body. The processor is coupled to the tip sensing module and the gesture sensing module, and is configured to generate a command when the touch event on the touch screen and the orientation are detected. The wireless module is coupled to the processor and is configured to transmit the command to the computing device to trigger a function on the computing device.
