1. A stylus comprising:
a housing;
one or more electrodes disposed at a first end of the housing;
wireless communication circuitry;
a haptic module; and
an acoustic resonator disposed at a second end of the housing opposite the first end and coupled to the haptic module; wherein the haptic module is configured to generate a drive signal in response to a request received by the wireless communication circuitry that causes the acoustic resonator to generate an acoustic signal, and the acoustic resonator is configured to generate the acoustic signal in response to the request received by the wireless communication circuitry.
