Abstract

An input device for touch-sensitive, capacitive surfaces, including an application device having at least one application element and at least one contacting element. The application device is designed as a holder filled with a liquid, gel-like, or pasty application medium. The holder of the application device is non-conductive at least in the gripping region. The application medium is electrically conductive, and an electrically conductive connection is formed between the at least one contacting element and the liquid, gel-like, or pasty application medium.
