Summary:Techniques for haptics for a handheld input apparatus are described. Generally, a handheld input apparatus can be used to provide input to various types of devices. According to various embodiments, a described handheld input apparatus includes a haptic motor for generating different haptic interactions between a tip of the apparatus and an input surface. According to various embodiments, a described handheld input apparatus includes strain sensor for determining different load forces on a tip of the apparatus. In at least some embodiments, a haptic mode for the haptic motor is determined based on load force detected by the strain sensor.
