A graphic designer is using a high-end tablet for detailed digital artwork and requires a stylus that can provide the best precision and pressure sensitivity. Which of the following types of touch pens should the designer use?
An active stylus with pressure sensitivity and palm rejection capabilities
A capacitive stylus designed for generic touchscreen use
A resistive touchscreen stylus with a hard plastic tip
A passive stylus with a rubber tip designed for resistive screens
An active stylus is the best option for a graphic designer who needs precision and pressure sensitivity for digital artwork. Active styluses are powered and communicate with the device for additional functionality like pressure sensitivity, which is crucial for artists when they need to vary the width and opacity of lines based on the pressure applied. Capacitive styluses only mimic a finger touch and lack pressure sensitivity, while resistive styluses work on resistive touchscreens and also lack the sophisticated pressure sensitivity and precision required for detailed artwork.
