If you are an artist who absolutely loves using the Apple Pencil on your iPad Pro, here is some good news. Rumors suggest that the next Apple Pencil might possibly work with your Mac.
Thanks to a new leaked patent, spotted by Patently Apple, shows off a new potential design for the stylus which can make it work with the Magic Trackpad and an iMac, maybe even the trackpad on a MacBook laptop. The new Apple Pencil would also use electromagnetic signals from electrodes at the tip of the stylus. This will translate scribbling on the trackpad to the screen and might soon also work with in air gestures. This can be tipping the pen in a certain direction in mid-air could turn the pages of a document, or change to the next slide in a presentation. Or the stylus could be linked to an on-screen object, and turning the pen around would rotate said object.
This means that Apple is trying to make its Apple Pencil more versatile, and increasing the possibilities of applications. However, Apple is known for filing a large number of patents and designs which don't really come out. Another patent recently filed by Apple pointed to the possibility that a MacBook with an LTE modem is in the works, which might further add to the price of the MacBook.
Anyways, a revamped Apple Pencil on the hand should not make an impact on its price, or at least hopefully it wont.
