Abstract

Examples relate to managing power consumption of a stylus haptic feedback component prior to actuation. In one example, power is transmitted to a haptic circuit and a first haptic predicter value corresponding to a first user interaction with the stylus is determined. A weighted first haptic predicter value is generated by weighting the first haptic predicter value. A second haptic predicter value corresponding to a second user interaction is determined, and a weighted second haptic predicter value is generated by weighting the second haptic predicter value. At least the weighted first and second haptic predicter values are combined to generate a combined weighted predictive result, which is compared to a haptic predictive threshold value. On condition that such comparison yields a haptic predictive result, power continues transmitting to the haptic circuit. On condition that such comparison yields a non-haptic-predictive result, power ceases transmitting to the haptic circuit.
