Or just use a resistive digitizer above the screen and make anything with a tip a stylus, so they can be disposable and replaceable like pens.
I could've sworn that the Panasonic laptops that I've seen EMTs use here in Australia had exactly that. Though I've never been in the best shape when I'm in the back of an ambulance lol
Extremely relatable. Someone needs to come up with a stylus that is permanently attached to a laptop using a wire or some other sort of contraption, similar to writing pads with permanently attached pens. The slot (hole) for the stylus should still stay, so that it can be packed up/stored neatly.
The main reason it was not done yet, my guess, is because of the dangling cable from the tablet when the stylus is stored in the slot, but it could be retractable for storage or something like that.
